control cluster usage in labview NXG

Hello dear Forum users,

I am trying to use Clusters to Group Control Elements but within the diagram I cannot find out how to Access the individual controls in the Cluster. Could someone help me please?

In regular LabVIEW it is called Unbundle or Unbundle by Name.  I would assume NXG has a similar function, but I don't use it so I can't point you to it.

 

What you want is a basic LabVIEW skill.  I would suggest you look at any tutorials available for NXG.

I haven't looked at NXG for two years, but if memory serves you used the Property node for such things, much like you can do with a class with get/set properties defined.

I do understand how to turn the cluster into a control on the diagram, but then I only get one output wire, even though the cluster contains multiple controls? How do I wire up the different controls that are INSIDE the cluster to exterior indicators?

Unbundle or Unbundle by Name if this was Classic LabVIEW.

Something similar exists in NXG.

"The Unbundle By Name and Bundle By Name are now combined into a Cluster Properties node. The Cluster Properties node allows you to read from and write to elements in the same node."
