Re: labview comressor help!!

Having done a pretty detailed run-through of the compressor code, i've decided that it's a load of rubbish. It's far easier to write your own compressor code than it is to actually use the library provided. In fact, i can see no way that the provided VIs would EVER work, but i could just be missing something. The code needed is quite simple. feed a relay and a DIO in, and then feed the DIO value to a case structure. If it's true, stop the compressor. if it's false, run the compressor in reverse (at least, that's what worked for us).
