how to change channel while running- programmatically

[freemason]

Hi all,

How do i change the channel to acquire from while running. i have 60 buttons laid out each has channel numbers associated with it in another vi not attached here but for simplicity below is wat i have done

the numeric to string will be the channel name+number, since the selectionprocedure happens from a numeric control on FP in my requirement. final goal is i need to be able to select a channel and view its graph on FP without stopping the program.

problem is i have 60 channels to read from and thought to make each case foreach channel with corresponding name, but is there a better way to doit.

any help is much appreaciated,

Thanks in advance
