Hello everyone,
I have a question about designing a customizable front panel for data acquisition cards. I already have 3 virtual instruments, one which will display waveform of input signal, one which will display numeric values of input signal (peak-to-peak, +peak, -peak, DC, RMS), and third one which shows numeric values and waveforms of input signal. Those three block diagrams are similar to examples which can be found in LabVIEW Help tab (Help->Find Examples...). But, the problem is next.
Now I need to create a front panel which will ask me how many inputs do I have (it can vary from 1 to 8), then it should ask me what do I want to see (numeric values, waveforms, or both) for every single channel, and in the end it should show me my preferences in a new (or same) front panel.
For example, I select four inputs, then I select waveforms for input 1 and 2 (because I want to see waveforms of signal on inputs 1 and 2), and numeric values for inputs 3 and 4, and then my front panel should be divided into four sections, on the left side there are waveforms for inputs 1 and 2, and on the right side there are numeric values for inputs 3 and 4 of my DAQ card. Any ideas how to achieve this?
Thanks.
