If this is going to be a built application then save the data to a file when the user exits and then read that file and initialize the control values upon startup...

If it's going to be a VI then you can programatically make current values default and save the VI when the user exits by opening a reference to the VI and an invoke node.

I ran across a web page that explains how to do this. You generate the VIs he is showing and then you add them as a subVI. Here is the web page:
