Owning Palette: Engine Control VIs

Use the IO Primitives to interact with a shared variable, convert a string to a shared variable and back, and to create an invalid shared variable name.

The IO Primitives palette also contains the DataSocket functions that you can use to read and write to shared variables.

The VIs on this palette can return general LabVIEW error codes or specific DSC Module error codes.

Palette Object	Description
Not a Shared Variable	Creates a shared variable name that is guaranteed to not be a valid shared variable name.
Shared Variable Constant	A constant input for a shared variable and/or a VI.
Shared Variable to String	Converts a shared variable to a string.
String to Shared Variable	Converts a string to a shared variable. valid shared variable? is TRUE if the resulting shared variable is deployed. valid shared variable? is FALSE when the value of the output shared variable is still equal to the value of the string.
