Running Continuously from the Begining

[QoergTux]

Hello,

I am finishing a program and I want it to start running continously from the begining but I cannot find the way to stablish this condition. Does anybody know how to do it?

Really Thanks,

From your VI Front Panel select FILE then VI PROPERTIES.

Use the drop down combo box and slect EXECUTION

Then check the option 'Run When Openend'

Just to clarify, there is no option to start a VI with the "cuntinuous run" button activated. If your VI needs to run contiunously, the main code must be in a while loop (prefereably with a small wait statement).

Now follow Conseil's advice. 😉

It's not advice...
It's counsel...

As for the original poster, just in case you do this and then you find out that you also close your VI and don't have a way to edit the code, you can get into the code by placing the VI as a subVI inside another VI and then double clicking it.

Top tip there, well done.


I forgot I knew that one, I saw students on a LabVIEW basics course struggle with trying to get into a VI that had been set up to make it difficult to access. Almost all had to be shown how to get back in.

I'm glad I popped in here today.  That's a good tip that I'll have to keep in mind.  Thanks!

... and if you have LabVIEW 8.0, just open it from within the project window and it will not run automatically. 🙂

Another top tip, two in one night.

Fantastic.
