how can I stop a while loop

[aurelia]

In the program in attachment I want that when I stop loop 1, sequence 1 or loop 2 also stop. Do you know what I should do? Thanks

You probably want to write 'TRUE' to a 'Value' property node of the STOP button in loop2 from loop1. To do that you will need to change this STOP button's mechanical action from 'LATCH' to any of the 'SWITCH' options.

Please let me know wether it helps, or whether you need an example

Hi Aurelia,

I modified a bit your VI and added a few comments, to explain how it works.
If you need further help, fell free !

Here is a way to do it with just one stop button.

You cannot stop the sequence, it must complete on its own. (One of the reasons sequencees should be used sparingly. They are rearely needed)

You can use a single stop button and use a local variable of it in the second loop. Another nice method is the use of event structures. You can capture the stop event on all other loops as shown in the attached example (LabVIEW 7.0).

Thank you very much. Could you please save the vi in the version 7.0. I do not have 7.1. Thanks again

My example is in Version 7.0 🙂

Thank you very much. I made some changes to loop MOD. In loop 2 there is a continue if true linked to a true / false. I need loop 2 to stop when I stop loop1. However, I have a message error for event structure and event data node. Do you know what I did wrong? Thanks again

I forgot to attach the vi
