Need an enable/disable Labview VI for SC-2062 relay board using PCI-6503 DAQ Card.

I am using Labview 6i, and I need to write an enable/disable VI that will enable and disable 6 of the 8 relays at any time while keeping the whole vi running. Therefore one or more positions may be changed at a time, but positions that don't change cannot be interrupted when changing others (no port resets allowed). I was wanting to maybe send a 1 by 6 array of some sort out but I can't figure out how to use the array to communicate with the DAQ card, relay board and SC-2051 adaptor. There also needs to be error handling in and out. Thanks for your help. Any examples would be very helpful.

Hello;

The best way to go about that is to disable the data points correspondent to the channels you want to disable. Meaning that you can ignore the datapoints of the channels you want to disable on the fly. That is the only way to disable channels on the fly.
