mezga Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 Hi all, I am novice in Labview. I am using Labview 5.1. I would like to create a stopper which count the seconds from 0 till I stop it! How can I deal with this problem. I was suffering a lot with tick count and wait until next ms multiple, but I had no success please help me if you know the answer thanks in advance Quote Link to comment
Aitor Solar Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 What do you mean, just to count the time a loop is running? Something like this? But that's not real time Saludos, Aitor Quote Link to comment

tnt Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 Hi Aitor,thanks for the quick answer! could you send me this vi in 5.1 format. m.p@mailbox.hu thanks a lot Hi Mezga, starting from the screenshot, you can rebuild this VI in a few clicks... BTW, why R U requesting for 5.1 when you also have 7.1 ?? Don't disgrace the Belgian flag :ninja: TNT Quote Link to comment
Aitor Solar Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 could you send me this vi in 5.1 format. I can't, LabVIEW 7 & 8 don't save VIs for such an old version. But as tnt said, it is really easy. Saludos, Aitor Quote Link to comment
Bob Y. Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 I can't, LabVIEW 7 & 8 don't save VIs for such an old version. But as tnt said, it is really easy.Saludos, Aitor LabVIEW 5.1 does not have the flat sequence structure. You will need to use the original sequence structure (stacked). In Pane 0 you will have to create a sequence local and wire the time-stamp into it (actually a double in 5.1?). In Pane 1 you will have your loop. In Pane 2 you will have to use the value in the sequence local for the subtraction. I hope that this helps, Bob Young Quote Link to comment
