Semaphore problem upon reinitializing VI

Question

Dear all, 
I am not a Labview expert and I'm encountering a problem here. I've searched the web and these forums, nothing came up though. 
So here is the thing: I used labview's suggestion to reinitialize all values in my program to their default values (see http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/08E7DDAE66A7D02C86256DDA00630E75). It worked like a charm. Now I added a semaphore to control the data flow, but now the reinitialization fails. When I press the reinitialization button, I get the following error, referring to the acquire semaphore vi.
Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW:  An input parameter is invalid. For example if the input is a path, the path might contain a character not allowed by the OS such as ? or @.
=========================
NI-488:  Command requires GPIB Controller to be Controller in Charge.
I must admit I don't exactly know what the reinitialization does (I just copied the method), but my guess is the semaphore gets reset which makes t impossible to acquire it somehow. Is there a way to not reset them, or to make 'em readable again?
TY, 
Kristof
I added a simplified VI that shows the problem.

Hi Mike,
Thank you very much for your reply,
Indeed for this example, I can just connect them. But this is a simplified version, showing the problem. In my real program, I have to control the data read from a DAQ and a serial port and for that I need the semaphore.. atleast that's what I think is best.(I added the real program as attachment, but I doubt whether it makes sense to you.)
