[mariomoskis]

how could i control the execution of a code with a timed loop in lavbview with a start bottom on my front panel? i don´t want to use normal start and stop bottoms which i have up of my code of labview

i just want to create a bottom conected to my timed loop and control de excution of my code

You VI should always be running. All you need is a state machine with ain idle case and a case that runs the timed loop. If the VI is not running, it cannot react to controls on the front panel. (except in rare cases)

I don't know what a "bottom" is (actually I do, but it has many meanings ;)), but you can use a simple boolean button to switch between states.

i attached the code which i am running, i tried to put this code inside a case structure with a boolean control but the code didn´t work

i want to do it,because for example when i am runnig the code,i would like to reset the value of the indicator called contador' when i push a bottom, 'without stopping the code

Put the addition inside the FALSE case and place a zero diagram constant inside the TRUE case.

i got it,but when i tried to run the code again, the indicators start running since the value which they had when i stopped the code.

i would like that they start since value equal to 0 when i run the code again

how could i do it?

thanks

ok no problem,i could do it myself

i just needed to restart the values=0 when i have the false case

thanks for your help
