Start acquisition

[ameletudiante99]

Hi,

To better control when I start the acquisition, I want to add a button, I put it in a case structure ; I have a problem that when I run the program and the button is not pressed, the program does not wait, I tried to put wait but it did not work.

I thought about programming a wait until I press the button but I don't know how to program it, could you help me?

thanks in advance

There is no while loop to poll the button. Hence the program proceeds with either true or false case once.

When you open the Forum, at the top of the first page you can find "LabVIEW Learning Center".  Spend 15 minutes with "Introduction to LabVIEW" to learn how LabVIEW works, and why it is not BASIC, C++, or Python.  Then think about what you want to do, and use the proper LabVIEW Structures to do it!
