changing data range during runtime

[shaiqbashir]

Hi guys!

I want to use a Gauge Indicator and a knob control in my VI. What i want is to change their data ranges during runtime. I should be able to change its max value, min value as well as increment so as to suit my readings. How is that possible. I try doing something with property node but i couldnt do that. Kindly help me.

Regards,

Shaiq Bashir

It's done with the property called Data Entry Limits. What property did you use? If it's this property, post your code so someone can see what is wrong with it.

What exactly isn't working? Were you not able to find the properties, or did the control not accept the values, or what? Are you also changing the scale info to reflect the change in data ranges?

See attached VI (Version 8.5)

Use the Scale.Range Property node, and it will change all the funtions for you.
