Information required regarding "Run Once" mode of LabVIEW?

I am trying to create a simple project in LabVIEW, where I am trying to blink an LED using a slide switch

But after when I connect both slide switch and LED on back end (block diagram) and try to run my VI, I am unable to see output result when I press the "run once" button

But when I press "run continuously" button, I can easily see result changing

I have attached a snapshot and I have highlighted both run modes

I want to know, approximately how much time occurs for run once mode? I guess that time will be very small, because of which we cannot see change in output with normal human eye capability

Solution

  • If you want to know the elapsed time for execution time, maybe you can try the below method to test:

    enter image description here

    And you can get the elapsed time for "run once mode".

    The execution speed still depends on the CPU running clock.

    I test on my computer, the results are different every time. (Around the 80 us ~ 140 us for this case.)
