How to Glow LEDs in Sequence (One After the Other)

Hello Labview,

 

I am coming back here after a long long time and re-touching the Labview after so long.

 

So, have some really basic question.

 

I have 15 LEDs, which I want to glow one after the other (First glows and dies, then second glows and dies, then third glows and dies and so on...).

 

I should be able to do it with a single button.

 

I know this would be a silly question but I am not able to make out since I am returning after a long time.

 

Can I please request you to help me creating such a program?

 

Looking forward for your positive reply.

 

Regards,

Nishant

The fundamentals of LabVIEW hasn't changed that much in 5 years.

 

It sounds like you need to re-learn what little you knew by taking the online tutorials.

Hello,

 

Yes, I do agree that fundmentals haven't changed and they even wotn't for sure.

 

I have already started learning and making out  how I could do it.

 

My main reason to put up a question here was that "I am short of time and this point of time as I have a deadline to meet".

 

I will be able to meet deadline if somebody helps me in creating that program or at least give me few hints.

 

I hope you understand my concern and would come forward to help.

 

Looking forward for your positive reply.

What hardware do you have to drive the leds? I'm assuming you have a digital output module of some sort?

 

It could be a simple as taking a U16 integer set to 1 and writing that to your output device, then bit-shifting left one bit and writing it again, and so on. In a loop. With a time delay. Depends a bit on your hardware and what format you need the data in to drive it.

Perhaps you should hire a LabVIEW programmer on a contract basis to do your work for you ?
