dataflow - problem

[nkritsch]

I have an Dataflow Problem.

I wish that in the 2nd loop it would be this dataflow:

-DAQ Assistant 2

- Time Delay

- DAQ Assistant 1

- Array 3 split in 2 arrays and make new array

- then the 2 Graphes should write.

How can i solve it best.

Need i do Sub VIs or can i somethink make an priorisation. It would be great.

And a second question.

When i am starting my program a 2nd time i need to clear Array 3.

Why is it so?

i think i create a new Array 3 before the Loops.

Just wire the error out of DAQ Assistant 2 to time delay error in, then wire time delay error out to DAQ Assistant 1 error in.

Yup those error chains are really handy   And wireing those errors will improve your code functionality in the event something is wrong with the hardware.

Use the error wire from between the daq assistants and the delay function to determine the order of execution.

Don't use local variables.  Array 3 should be maintained in a shift register on your outer For Loop.

Insert into Array is almost always the wrong function to use.  You should be using Build Array instead.

I would recommend looking at the online LabVIEW tutorials

when i use shift registers instead of the local variables:
I dont need the array3 any more...i can shift the output of "build array".

But how can i write and read in an array.

because its allways control or indicator.

so if i use it i cant update the array any more or?

edit: i cant use Build array because i dont know how many elements that array should have. its dynamic

I don't understand what you are trying to say in the first paragraph.

Yes. You can use Build Array. You can put a new element at either the beginning or an of an existing array.
