Spinning LED values Clockwise

[I_I]

Hi Everybody,

I have a application in which round indicators needs to be arranged. And when I make in ON/FF , I shoud get indicator values in Clockwise.

Brief of attached VI

1. There are 8 segments (Needs help how to create in LabVIEW which accept values)

2. To make each segment 500ms ON in Clockwise(this can be done if Step1 is resolved).

Thanks in Advance for great support in Custom Indicators.

Hi,
I am not sure this is what you need, but I hope this will lead you o a solution... 😉

Search for roulette or dart board in this forum. If I remember right they used the picture control vis to generate it.

Of course you can also use the picture ring with 8 pics.

Attached a way to spin

Here is a link to the Picture Control thread.

If you come up with a unique "twist" please post an example so we can add it to the list.

Thanks TiTou,

But my requirement is to Spin Triangular LEDs in clockwise not round LEDs.

I can put 8 trianguar LEDs in clockwise sequence and make it ON/OFF as per requirement but I am looking for who can help me getting 8 Triangular LEDs.

So, the only issues is that you want triangular LEDs instead of the round LEDs, right?  We can forget about rotating and revolving and clockwise and counter-clockwise then?

Hi,

As Ben pointed, the solution is to customize you control, like this...

Thanks TiTou and Khalid,

Khalid got my exact requirement.

TiTou has given solution upto some extent. In his example only 4 LEDs are placed in vertical and horizontal directions. What about other 4 remaining LEDs which shapes are not easily available in LabVIEW.

Thanks,

That, my friend, is left as an exercise for the students...

Hi,

I'm glad you got what you were looking for.

But my purpose was certainly not to try to do the whole job for you, but more tools and ideas so that you can solve not only this issue but also the issues you'll face in the future 😉

Prefer teach you to fish than giving you fishes every day 😉
