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
