using a switch/button to turn on a motor
As a novice LabView programmer, I'm going to post this here to see if it's a viable way to code the outcome I'm looking for... which it this:
I have a CIM motor. It's connected to a Jaguar, and then to PWM channel 10 on the digital sidecar in Slot 4. I want to set a speed for this motor in the code (preferably in percentages, like 85%). And then I want to have a switch turn that motor on/off. In the final outcome, I imagine I'll actually have a joystick turn this on/off, but for now, I want to test it with a button on the Front Panel. I've attached the code I wrote. It's in a while loop, which I am hoping is controlled properly by the ON/OFF switch (Boolean). Does this look like it will work to do what I want?
