1. Overview
This examples shows how to use the property Val (Sgnl) [Value (Signaling)] to update a control's vale and generate a value change event.

2. Description
Firing events programmatically allows you to fire events from anywhere in the VI hierarchy. The Value (Signaling) property updates the value of an object similar to the Value property. However, the Value (Signaling) property also causes LabVIEW to generate an event as if the user had interactively changed the value of the object.

3. Requirements

• NI LabVIEW Base Development System 2012 or above.

4. Steps to Implement or Execute Code

1. Download and Run the VI.
2. Write different numbers in the Number to Push control and click OK as you update them.
3. Note how the Pulled number event counter keeps track of how many times the Pulled Number indicator is updated.
4. Click the STOP button to stop the VI.
