Adding delay in data acquisition in labview

Question

(Sorry I was not able to post picture as my reputation level is below 10)

What I wanted to do is, I want my laser displacement daq to start acquiring data after one second after the another daq acquisition starts acquiring data.

I am not able to add delay on the laser displacement daq. (Both method should run for 10 second and laser displacement daq should be 1 second late at acquiring data.)

Thanks

Answer 1

There are different ways to do that. Here are two ideas:

1. Acquire 11 seconds of data for both, and throw away the first 1 second of data from the laser.

2. Use the Time Delay Express VI and wires to control the order of code execution, as suggested by @nekomatic: (Note: My original code, which uses Sequence Structures and the Wait (ms) Function, is at https://i.sstatic.net/9pIwb.png)
