skip waiting button

[Gatet]

Hi all,

in my program I have a SubVI where the temperature for the test is settled and, optionally, there is a delay for the soak time (see atatchement).

During this delay, i would like to implement a "Skip waiting" button, so that the user can avoid it. The problem is that the execution waits until the "ok" button is pressed. I have also tried two parallel while loops with no success.

Would be great if somebody can suggest me an implementation.

Thanks!

Hi Gatet,

use an event strucutre. Use the timeout event and create an event for your skip button. Connect your timeout time with the event structure.

Hope it helps.

Hi Mike,

That is a goog hint, but I was thinking in a dialog button (so that only appears during soak delay time).

Hi Gabi,

you can solve it, if you create your own dialog from my example.
