on/off LED cycle and other operations simultanously.

[stepsan]

Hello,

I am a beginner with Labview. I would like to light on and off a LED during 36 cycles. In each cycle LED is on during 5 seconds and off during 10 seconds.

With the attached program, I have 2 problems: 

- I can not do anything simultanously with LED control but I have to wait the end of each cycle to be allowed to do something.  For example I would like to read temperature every half second and opening and closing a relay depending on its value.

- I can not stop the sequence before the end of all 36 cycles.

I tried also another way to sort it out (event structure)  but It doesn't help me at all.

What can I do? Anyone can help me?

Regards

will this work?

Thanks.

Your advice help me to solve the first issue about stopping it before the end of all cycles.

But I don't know yet how to execute other operations every 500ms simultanously with LED on/off. With such VI I have to wait 15s before being allowed to do something again.

oh, you can just put it in the same stack sequence as the OFF LED or the ON LED.

it should run at the same time.

i dont think there will be a problem if those timeout are 500ms.

try it out. i am still learning like you too.
