expres vi controls value

[andrej]

Hi!
I created express vi with input terminal Numeric. Then i placed this express vi on block diagram and wired constan to Numeric terminal and opened configuration dialog box of expres vi.
Value of Numeric was set to 0 (witch is default) and not to 5 (this is constant value that I wired to express vi). So is there any way to set value of Numeric in configuration dialog box of expres vi to the value wired to input terminal of express vi?

Thanks!

Hello,

I don't believe Express VIs behave quite they way you seem to be expecting.  Some values that can be specified from the configuration page can also be wired in on the diagram of the place calling the Express VI.  The two methods of setting the values are designed to somewhat dis-joint.  Wiring values in to an Express VI does change the run-time behavior (wired values override those specified on the config page), but they do not change the configured value displayed by the config page.  Instead, the config page displays what value would be used if nothing was wired into that input.

Hope that helps!
