Re: Dashboard help - Analog 1 works but not Analog 2 or Analog 3

From the PDF that they posted page 2 the Operation Tab.

Notice the dark shadow lines that are to the lower right corner of 'Average Analog 2' and 'Average Analog 3' that you do not see on 'Average Analog 1'.

To test this before 'marccenter' makes any corrections, he could run the dashboard and I believe when he switches tabs to say 'Test' or 'Checklist', 'Average Analog 2' and 'Average Analog 3' gauges will stay visible on top (also the X-Y graph and Boolean button LEDs)

This is the effect.
How Can I Access the Same Control/Indicator on Multiple Tabs of a Tab Control?

The two gauges are NOT part of the Operation Tab and there fore will not be updated like 'Average Analog 1' is.

This is what I think happens when Marc runs his Dashboard and switches to another Tab

Oh. My browser didn't make it obvious that there were additional pages; all I was looking at was the first one. Yep, it sounds like you've identified his problem (or at least a big part of it).

Re: Dashboard help - Analog 1 works but not Analog 2 or Analog 3

Omar,
Good call! That was the issue.

So for others, here's how I walked into this Labview "gotcha". Rather than using the mouse to move my analog gauge display initially onto the dashboard location, I selected the analog gauge with my mouse and used my keyboard arrow keys because it made positioning easier. The arrow key movement did not allow the gauge to become "bound" properly as cited by OMAR above.

Thanks again for your help, it now works as expected and Average Analog 2 and Average Analog 3 update properly,
