NIVS DLLs models simultaneous execution

[CGiulio]

Hi to all,

I have to resolve an issue turns out with my VeriStand workspace:

I have a NIVS project with two dll models, whose execution (Run/Stop/Pause) is monitored in the VersìStand workspace by two "Model Control" UI Objects.

I wonder if it is possible to manage the executions without a twice clicking, that is, control them together by a mouse click.

I tried to create a custom UI object, whose controls would/should manage all the other dll UI objects controls in the workspace; then I modified "Model -  Model Control.vi" with the addition of a "Call by Reference" block to call my custom UI object controls; but an error occurs when I tried to load the object in the workspace. The same problem using a subVI rather than a Call by Reference.

I hope to be clear.

Where I get wrong?

Do you have a solution to this problem?

Thanks,

Giulio

Each Model uses the numeric Channel, “..\Execution\Model Command” to (Start/Pause/Reset/Save/Restore) the model’s execution. 

You could create a single User Channel and map it to each model’s “Model Command” Channel.

Then use a numeric control on the workspace to Start (0) or Pause (1) the execution of every model with a single button press.

Todd is on the right track.
