You can reset the counter by subtracting an 'offset' count-at the time the reset button is pressed - read the store the current counter value - then subtract that values from all following counter readings.

See image of code.

Dear JackHamilton,

One more question... :laugh:

Can i use Counter Control.vi to reset the counter??

If can't .........why??

Thanks :worship:

Yes, you can - but you may loose counts during the reset of the counter. My suggested method - you don't.

It depends upon your needs.
