Re: Pneumatic Piston using Labview will not fire
Can you write code to do the following:

1) Display the value of Button 1 (or whatever button you are using) on your smart dashboard. Print "pressed" when it is pressed, and "not pressed" when it is not pressed.

2) Send a signal to extend the pneumatic. Wait 1 second. Send a signal to retract the pneumatic. Wait 1 second. Repeat.

What are your results for #1? Does it display the status of the button correctly?
What are your results for #2? Does the pneumatic extend and retract?
