Phil Duncan Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 Name: Multistate Boolean LED Indicator Submitter: Phil Duncan Submitted: 04 Jul 2009 Category: X-Controls LabVIEW Version: 8.5 Version: 1.0.0 License Type: BSD (Most common) Make this available on the VI Package Network?: Undecided Multistate Boolean LED Indicator V1.0.0 Copyright © 2008, Phillip Duncan All rights reserved. Author: Phillip Duncan --see readme file for contact information Background: I have had many people ask for an LED type indicator for their project. During development, I often get asked to have this Boolean (ie 2 state) indicator display one of (more than 2) colours. Whilst that in itself is not difficult, more often than not I am then asked to make the Boolean LED flash as well to highlight certain states. For example a single LED will often need to indicate the following states: OFF (green, red or grey) ON (Green, red or grey) Flashing (green, red, any other colour) I have had so much demand for this functionality, that I decided to develop this XControl and share it with the LabVIEW Community. Many thanks must go to Aristos Queue and his inspiring "Scrolling LED XControl" example. Description: This XControl is a typical Boolean LED indicator that can also be configured to flash between two user defined colours. The flashing interval can also be modified. When not flashing, the XControl behaves as a normal Boolean LED. This XControl is an indicator only is is not intended to be used as a control. Dependancies: There are no OpenG dependencies for this XCtonrol Known Issues: If you save this code for version 8.0/8.2, you may encounter issues trying to assign multiple properties in one property node. This is a bug in LabVIEW 8.0/8.2 Change Log: 1.0.0 Initial release Click here to download this file 1 Quote Link to comment

EvanC Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Can some one save this in 8.2 so I can take a look at it? If it works for me great, if not I can work around the bug. Thanks Quote Link to comment
hooovahh Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Awesome, I don't need this right now but there have been times where something like this would have came in handy. Quote Link to comment
