How do I clear boolen indicators on START?

When the file is first opened boolean T/F indicators are RED. They turn green as tests are passed. However on another START they stay the same as the last Run. Can they be cleared iupon a START/RUN command?

Hi Ralpho,

You can go to VI Properties > Execution and select the "Clear indicators when called" option. This should solve your problem.

Good luck,

How about sending the boolean indicator a false constant initially?

Another way would be to just set default value to False for the indicator.

How I do it : Grab an Invoke Node, set the "Select Class" to VI Server > VI. Set the "Method" to Reinitialize All To Default. Put this at the beginning of your program.
If I want some indicators to read a certain value at startup, I either use an INI file, or if it's just a few things, I set the value with a local variable write, just after the Invoke Node does the Reinitialize.
