Hi,
I am sending a UDP packet called "start" over the network from my embedded system. Then, I would like the NI hardware to start power monitoring (and logging). Next, when I send another UDP packet called "stop", it should stop power monitoring. I have a bash script which sends UDP packets called "start" and "stop" at periodic intervals. To make the vi constantly listen to the UDP port, I added an external while loop. I am having issues with how to proceed further from there. I think I cannot nest another while loop in it, as it is becoming difficult to break out of it when I send "stop" udp packet. I have been reading on NI forums and some have suggested a event structure. I am not sure how to interface it with the while loop despite looking at some examples. Can you please help. I am attaching the vi. I am new to labview and finding it slightly different. I am using Labview 2009.
Thank you very much.
