Hello!
So currently I am working on a temperature control program that monitors 4 thermocouples. Basically, when thermocouple 1(used to measure heater temperature) reaches 100 degree(threshold temp1), the power source for the heater will switch off. However, when the mean temperature of thermocouple 2 and 3(used to measure water) drops below 60(threshold temp2), the heater will on again. How do I differentiate it on labview? How do I tell the system which DAQ channel(connected to respective thermocouples) I want to do my temperature comparision with the threshold temperature?
Thank you for you help!

Somewhat depends on your setup, but give Index Array a try.

If you have written some code, show us, it will help us see your intended structure.

hmm hi @crossrulz thanks for the suggestion but how do I go about using Index Array in this case?

Start by reading 4 channels from your DAQ. I am not familiar with ULx, so you might want to go look through some examples from Measurement Computing on how you add more channels to your acquisition task.
