This just counts continuously as long as the button is held down. I could just hook the button to the loop enable and use the index as the count to do this. I need to count button pushes, need to detect the edge of the button signal.
I tried using an AND to the loop enable, ANDing the button and NOT return from a boolean shift register (the shift register output is the button). This should allow it to run one loop cycle and then stop, but it doesn't work. Can you explain why? And in general, where is the detail on the loop and shift register operation? All the help and manual just give the basics, none explain why the above doesn't work. Is there a Labview for Dummies or something that goes into the fine details? Thanks-
