Dynamic event registrati​on tutorial

Hi All,
I wanted to learn about the Dynamic Event registration ... i have tried to donwload so many examples and try to undertsand why thery r using this...??
unfortunatly i could not able to find one with a clear description... Can any please give some basic differences and uses between static and dynamic events ...
in some post they use so many property nodes and regsiter events and so on ...
Thanks in advance...
Solved!

Can you post that vi? I am unable to drag and drop it because I have LV2010.

Static events are fully configured at edit time. They're the ones you know.
Dynamic events are also configured at edit time (because the event structure needs specific data types), but you can play with the event source and whether or not you actually get the event the event at run time.
I am still finding it hard to understand. I get the configured part. THat's coz you have to set up the event structure. What I don't understand is how exactly it becomes dynamic? We still add event cases just like static events. My mind is hurting so much thinking about this
I may not be perfect, but I'm all I got!

  • Dynamic event registrati​on wont work with Tab control

    In LTR volume 11 No1 we find the "Dynamic Event Handling.vi".
    I had placed the controls on a Tab control and now this example wont work.
    Is there a solution to this problem?

    Yes. The first stage of the code registers mouse down events for all the controls. When you added a tab control that meant that a mouse down event was registered for the tab as well. So now when you click on an object on the tab LabVIEW must decide whether to fire the mouse down on the tab-event, or the mouse down on the object on the tab event...It goes for the first but since there is no description for the tab no dialog will be displayed. If you add a description for the tab you'll see that it fires the event with the tab and you get a dialog with the tab description.
    So - how to fix. Well, it's not that simple, one might think that to exclude the reference to the tab when you register the events would do the trick, but it rather seems that LV will always t
    hink mouse clicks are on the tab and not on the objects on the tab.
    The solution though is to get the references to the objects by reading the controls on page property of the tab control. So instead of reading the controls array from the front panel read the pages references of the tab and then the controls on page array from that and then register mouse down events on that array.

  • Dynamic event registrati​on - FP not in memory ?

    Hello,
    I have problem that I don't understand tith dynamic event registration.
    In my app I have many threads that are initialised when app starts and I switch between them using subpanel.
    In one of this modules I want to register some dynamic events to find whitch controll in cluster was pressed.
    Why I get error 1001?
    I have static reference for all modules in main thread. I start modules but I don't open their FP.

    Well your image is confusing because you can't run without wiring that reference.  But if you did do that then the error comes from the fact that your VI doesn't have a front panel that is open when you register for it.  So that control reference doesn't really exists.  I mean it exists but you can't reference a control that hasn't been opened.
    I think what you'll want to do is open the front panel, but then set it to hidden.  Then after the front panel has been opened, and hidden, register for the control event.

  • Dynamic Event Registrati​on in Reentrant VI

    I have a VI running two reentrant Clients.  The client uses a subVI (not reentrant) to handle keystrokes.  The client passes a VI refnum to the subVI to dynamically register the keydown event.  When I run the main VI I receive the FP not open error (1001).  I have made the subVI reentrant and did not change the error output, any ideas?

    I have attached a modified VI testing the difference between the "This VI" refnum constant and the "This VI's path" -> open refnum constant.  The comparison equates both, but the hex values are different.  The FP 1001 error still occurs with the Dynamic event registration, the DER requires that the disk FP is open...Why? I don't know.
    Odd show...

  • How to create dynamic event handler methods?

    Hello!
    Is it possible to create dynamic event handler methods in the views of WDC and then subscribe to an event of another WD component completely dynamically.
    Many thanks,

  • What are the Dynamic Events avaliable in the LabView 6.1 Event Structure?

    I recieved LabView 6.1 recently and I am working with the Event Structure, and I'm trying to figure out what Dynamic Events are avaliable in the event structure, and how to access them. If you don't understand what I'm talking about, open a new VI in LabView 6.1 and drop an event structure on the diagram. Add an event and look at the dialog box that appears on the screen, specifically the Event Sources section. The third option in this area of the screen is "grayed out" but reads "Dynamic". I'm curious what these events are, and how I access them. I'm running WinNT 4 SP6.
    Thanks,
    Chris Davis

    I believe this is part of a feature which is not yet present in LabVIEW 6.1, but may be present in a future release.

  • Resetting a variable in an event structure (dynamic event)

    I'm working on moving an event structure into a sub VI. This means I have to register dynamic events. 
    The event structure is handling some button clicks. The state of the button (mechanical action = latch when released) resets itself automatically as long as the variable is placed within the value change case.  Leaving the button in this case is not possible when the event structure is put in a sub VI and the variable is located in the parent VI.  How do I make sure the button unlatches after clicking on it?  I have attached an example where all the code is in one VI (the local variable must be moved outside the event structure in order for it to be moved into a sub VI).  Any ideas?
    If you open the VI and run it, you can click Start which will cause the counter to start incrementing.  The button only unlatches as long as the variable is located in the value change case.
    (Btw, how do you put images inline in a post?)

    Race conditions are the primary reason not to do that. But since your treating your variable as a latch, I doubt your using the value you read from it anywhere, and in that case it can't create a race condition. There's also the possibility that the control's reference could become invalid. But since this is a sub VI of the control's VI that can't happen (even if it could you can check the error out of the value property node to see when it happens and deal with it).
    I'm not sure about the flickering, Since I can't seem to duplicate it with a simple test case on my machine. It might related to whatever else you're doing in the event apart from reseting the value to false.

  • 2012 Dynamic Event Registration Array of Controls

    In upgrading to LV2012, I have discoverd what may be a bug, or at least an incompatability between 2011 and 2012 with respect dynamic event registration of an array of controls as opposed to individual control references.
    This bit of code worked in 2011 but doesn't in 2012, with error 1 generated at the reg events block when run in 2012. I have been in contact with technical support, but haven't yet heard their take on this.
    Any thoughts.

    I've got the bug too -- it appears this bug is present when arrays of control refs are connected to the ConPane. Link to cross-post on LAVA about the original problem. As Patrick@Vision mentions above, one workaround is to ensure that the array of control refs is no longer on the ConPane by collapsing the Register for Events node onto the caller.

  • Dynamic event with global variable (vi)

    I have registered a dynamic event to fire when a control in a global vi value changes. All works fine when I open the global vi and change the value of the control manually. When I have another vi modify the value of the global, the dynamic event does not fire.
    I have tried leaving the front panel of the global vi open and observed the value being changed...
    Any help appreciated...

    Hi,
    Please refer to the following document that explains why programmatic changes to the global doesn't get detected.

  • Are you ever required to wire the dynamic event terminals through an event case?

    I remember some time ago, I ran into an issue while using an event case where my program was not functioning properly until, on a whim, I wired the dynamic event through that event case... now the reason I'm asking this in a general sense is because I don't remember what particular code I had this issue with and I could have been failing to update a shift register or something.
    In code I'm currently writing, I'm simply passing the dynamic event wire in a shift reg.  I was just wondering if there's any difference between wiring it through the event cases or simply passing it to the output shift register (without passing through the event cases)...
    any info appreciated!
    Thx
    -pat

    You do not have to wire it through. You don't need a shift register for references since the value will be the same for each iteration. In fact using a shift register is probably what caused issues. You probably updated it with the default value somewhere.

  • Dynamic events in PD/OM infotypes.

    I don't think so there is any concept of dynamic events in OM.... it's not required....and also not possible i guess....!!!!

  • Peculiar problem in dynamic event, which is registering randomly

    Hello,
    I am using a dynamic event to pass a data (variant) to a vi which i call dynamically. reference of the event is stored in LV2G.
    so both main and called vi can access. data when written to the generate user event vi is triggering event at random time when executed.
    I am attaching snapshot of the vi which i used to register event.
    One interesting thing i noticed is if i put a probe in the error out of the generate user event vi then event will start triggering.
    Need help. I am struggling to get a solution.

    Post any code you have on the issue.  There may be something simple that will fix the problem.  It sounds a lot like a race condition.

  • Using a dynamic event to trigger a signal

    Hi,
         I'm using a state machines approach to control a motor. I would like to trigger the current (for exemple, when current> 10 A, the event Overload happens). I think it is possible by using a dynamic event but I don't know how to do it.
    Does somebody know how to do that?
    Thank you

    I peeked into my tag cloud- I suspected that one of my "BENex.." tags linked to an example from Ben Raynard on this topic.

  • Dynamic Event Registration Error

    Hi,
    I'm getting to grips with Dynamic events in LabVIEW. However, I've encountered an issue i'm not sure on. When I try to register a cluster of control refs to the Register for Events function I get an error.. See Dynamic Event Registration.vi for small vi highlighting the issue.
    Thoughts?

    That helped me somewhat, however, I'm still experiencing problems. My events seem to be registering correctly but don't seem to generate when I trigger them. I've configured the event structure to execute should one of the controls in my cluster change value. However, the only event case that get's executed is the timeout case.
    I've attached a vi highlighting my problem named Dynamic Event Problem.vi. My real vi is much larger and contains many sub vis so hopefully what I've attached suffices..
