Hello, I've been working on doing a vending machine to practice the basics of LabVIEW. I want to build the exact past code for the vending machine but using the producer/consumer loop. (Normal one can be found on "self-driven" as main.vi) I am using a simple producer consumer loop with enums. (It's saved as "mainevent.vi") My problem is, my variables won't display on the front panel. I've tried debugging it with Probe, and it shows that it does go into the case but it still doesn't display it. Any ideas? Kind Regards

Hi Blancoys, replying to your original post: your values are not updated because you simply overlayed the terminal and shift register: <<<before - after>>> so every iteration you were feeding the empty array of clusters.You did enqueue the message and executed the init state of the consumer but the values updated the "products" were not the ones from the init state of the previous iteration. In your second reply, that's a completely different story. The init case is not running, because you don't enqueue the "init" message. You obtain the queue, and then in the consumer loop waiting for the message but it never comes.
