Structure CASE: Can I use a word of bit to choose a particular case?

Solved!
Go to solution

I know that I can use "CASE STRUCTURE" in which I can set 2 different situation: TRUE AND FALSE. I know that I can also add other case, but... how can I change boolean value. I know that I can use also integer numbers, but... it's possible to use boolean words? For example save in an array 3 bolean value and if:

 

CASE 1: 000

CASE 2: 001

CASE 3: 010

...

 

ecc. ecc.  It's possible? Can you show with a VI (I have LV8)?

Hi there,

 

Why not use Boolean array to number?

Yes.

 

It sounds like you are very new to LabVIEW.

Yes, the naming of the cases is based on the data-type of the selector. For more info see this page at the LabVIEW wiki.

 

If you use a numeric, it's even possible to show the value as a series of bits:
