Enable or Disable Controls Based On the Physical Channels that are Selected

[EEsRULEtheWORLD]

Overview

This example shows how to programmatically enable or disable controls based on the physical hardware channels you've selected. This example covers two methods for achieving this, by using either implicit or explicit property nodes.

Description

It can often be useful to enable or disable certain controls and indicators based on the number of physical channels that a user has selected. The following two methods, using implicit and explicit property nodes, respectively, provide two options for implementing code.

Requirements

Software

• LabVIEW 2012 or compatible

Hardware

• No physical hardware is needed to test this code as it is simply comparing the channel strings and isn't querying the hardware.

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

1. Download one of the attached examples.
2. Select the hardware channels you'd like to use.
3. Run the code.
