Write to text file on request

[MikeDahl]

Hello

I have been struggling with the "write to text file" in the button part of the attached .vi

I want to be able to tell my program that when I press the Boolean-button it should collect 1 sample point only from the mean.vi - Right now I have managed to make a Boolean-button that starts the data collection and then I have to push the button again when I "think" that now I have collected one data point using the case structure.

Can somebody help me to make the program collect one data point only when I press the Boolean-button?

Thanks!

Change the button's mechanical action to "Latch When Released".  It's a right-click option on the front panel button.
