First year using PeriodTasks... Quick troubleshooting...
 

Hey Labview experts,

This year is the first year we're adding Periodic Tasks, and we're having some issues building our code. We have (theoretically), a button on Joystick 1 being read once in order to initialize a flat sequence for our shooter. However, when we try building the code, the compiler throws an error. I've attached images for our periodictasks.vi and the error it throws.

Anyone have any clue what's going on? My google-fu and chief delphi search-fu has yield 0 results.

Thanks!

The run arrow at the top of the periodic tasks vi should be gray and broken instead of white and whole. Click on it and a list of more specific errors in the vi should appear.

Yep. The broken arrow should bring up a list that looks similar to that list of errors. You can then double click or select and click show and it will highlight the node that needs an input. The context help window -- ctl-H -- will bold the required inputs.
