how to get text output based on logical input

[arghya139]

I am doing a project on flow control

so I want to display tank empty / tank full display on a LCD display

now how do i show empty / full text based on the % of tank water ?

like when <10% LCD will show empty and when >90% LCD will show full ?

I recommend going through these:

That being said what you are looking for is a comparision function under the...Comparision palette.  Then if the condition is TRUE do something, or if it is FALSE do something else.  For this you can use a Case Structure, or in some cases a Select Function.

What is your LCD?  Is this an external device?  You'll have to look at the manual for it.  It is probably a matter of sending it some string data through the serial port.
