Hi bobfun,

 

when no motions is detected for 12 hours

This involves two steps: detecting a motion and detecting when time has elapsed.

 

To detect a motion you probably need to compare current measurement with previous measurement(s) - you should know the special algorithm as it's your measurement device.

 

The second part is easy: LabVIEW already has a function called "Elapsed Time"…

Best regards,
GerdW
