Having sound as an indicator

[dtran4]

I'm attempting to have a sound to indicate when the pressure is over the threshold, but I can't seem to find anything about that.

Look under the Sound Menu to play a file

Can you see what I'm doing wrong with my vi?

[mcduff]

You need to describe what is wrong with your VI.

The attached VI is missing a subVI.

The attached VI is the latest version, back save for an earlier version, like 2020 instead.

Include the missing subVI.

I'm not sure how to back save to 2020. I'm required to use the latest version for class. Also, can you explain why a subvi is needed?

File menu -> Save for previous…

Because we cannot debug your VI when the subVI used in your VI is missing…

(SubVIs are files of their own and not magically included in your MainVI.)

The VI that you posted is missing a subVI; it is located above the loop in the attached VI. Do not have LabVIEW available now to show you.

If you're new to LabVIEW it's best to just start with an example. 

Help > Find Examples...   Hardware IO > Sound > Sound Player.vi is a great start to easily play a sound file. 

C:\Windows\Media is full of .WAV files you can use.

Of course, the Beep.vi is the most simple way to make a sound.  Drop it on your block diagram, run the VI, and the PC will beep.

I once made an XControl that's an audible indicator, and another that's an audible tweak.

Would you like them?
