Thank you lynn.  I actually tweaked the code relatively quick, but once again im sure it has errors.  Its a simple test thus far and i am still learning how to use labview.  I found the example code you were talking about and it does make sense, but yes you were right, i didnt even bother trying to fit it to my code.  This code is much more a learning exerience for me than anything else, although it does have to perform the test.  But yest i am still having the timing issue that the suggested code would resolve.  Is there an easy way to have the create system array structure wait until the reserve chassis structure is complete? or is that going to be a start all over task?

Just to complicate things a bit more. I would use a state machine in the Consumer loop. It would stay in the setup state until the reserve chassis is complete. Then it could start the acquisition.

State machines are very powerful and versatile. And not too hard to learn and to use. Much easier to modify when you need to add a state.

lynn,

Here is my updated version of the file.  Im sure it still has multiple errors, any advice for clean up?  Also id like to add in a user stop using a stop button or the timer delay.  Just like you had mentioned before i cant put it near that event structure so im not sure how to do this.
