Timed loop

[star-123]

Hi everybody,

I used the timed loop and created the multiplication. But result of multiplication cannot be seen in front panel. I added the code. What is the reason? Also, I am trying that timed loop is run for different time(for example 10s or 60s). How can I do it?

HI 1085,

what is the purpose of the timed while loop (TWL) here? Why not use a simple while loop with a wait statement inside?

What is the reason?

You misconfigured the loop!? Next time please attach a snippet or the VI…

Also, I am trying that timed loop is run for different time(for example 10s or 60s). How can I do it?

By reading the help for the TWL you should know the answer to that question! Did you read the help?

What do you want to achieve by setting dt to zero?

Thank you for reply.  Which parameter is incorrect?

Hi 1085,

did you read my comment "Next time please attach a VI…"?

I recreated your VI and I suspect you should NOT wire anything into the clock source property…

How many parameters did you wire?  Have you read the Help for the Timed Loop?  Do you understand what each parameter does?  [You clearly do not ...].  Do a little of your own (home)-work, please.

Period

Specifies a period for the Timed Loop in the same units as the timing source specified by Source Name. Note: Do not set the period of a Timed Loop to 0. National Instruments does not support applications that contain Timed Loops with periods of 0 because these periods cause undefined application behavior. If you need a loop that runs as fast as possible combined with the priority execution features of a Timed Loop, use a While Loop inside a Timed Sequence structure instead.
