Static vi reference read indicator values

Question

The objective of my code is to open a separate VI when a certain boolean button is clicked, wait for action from the user, then close the separate VI, and return its values to the main function. I have put a static VI reference in my block diagram, and then two invoke nodes: "FP.Open" and "Run VI". That works fine, but I still haven't figured out how to obtain the values of the indicator from the reference. I thought I might use a Property Node, but I couldn't find the right property to select. Any help? Thanks!

Answer 1

And
if you still want to proceed with the idea of calling by reference, set the invoke node 'Run VI' to wait till complete as 'True'.
Then, place another invoke node after it, for Get Control Values. You will get an array of clusters, each cluster with the control/indicator name string and its value in variant data type.
Process that array of clusters.
Post your code if need further help.
i would support 'Christian's first option, of calling the vi as a sub vi and pass the indicator value as a terminal on the connctor pane.
