Registering DAQmx event to event structure not firing

[spastichawk]

I have created my DAQmx task for change detection on a digital IO channel (PXIe-1062Q; PXI-6527). In my VI i have registered the event in the same manner as the "DAQmx Create Event.vi". This event is needed only to capture a button press to start a test sequence. My the program compiles and runs but the event never fires.

 Good morning,

Here is some documentation to help you in your use of the event structure in LabVIEW. http://www.ni.com/white-paper/3331/en/

You should not have to wire the event into the event structure. 

Could I see what other events you have in your event structure?

Is your task running and acquiring data from digital line while you are waiting for this event?

a.cisneros, attached is a snip of the other events in the structure. They are all mouse down events on front panel buttons.

I have tried inserting a "DAQmx Start Task.vi" in between the task name and the reg events and that made no difference.

Does this example work?

Yes that was it. My big stoppage was inserting the "DAQmx Start Task.vi" before the Reg Events. Like a charm now!
