how to blink indiacator for 20 seconds on button press

[Prabhjit]

hello,

can anyone pls tell me how to blink indicator for 20 seconds when we press a boolean button. the indicator should blink everytime for 20 sec when boolean button is pressed.

Hi

Attached you can find a simple vi, where an indicator blinks for 20s after a button is pushed. Attention: To stop-button takes affect after blinking has finished (due to the fact that this is just a simple example).

Hope this helps.

hello sir,

i your example u have used mechanical action (latch when released) of boolean switch --- ... sir in my code i cannot use this mechanical action... i can only use (switch when pressed)....kindly help me in this...

So you have to code some boolean logic to start the blinking loop.

I modified the vi so that blinking starts with rising edge of button "Blink".

I already saw the thread you started on this topic, but I can only suggest you the examples provided with LV.

Although I already made applications using data socket and I also use JAVA, I've never exchanged data between these two languages.

So unfortunately I can't tell you more .
