Method of VI.

Starts the VI execution, similar to the Run button in LabVIEW. This method is different than calling a VI because it uses the current values of all front panel controls for execution rather than using data passed in through parameters. This method also ignores the ShowFPOnCall property of a VI and the CloseFPAfterCall property. You cannot use this method to run a VI that is already reserved for execution by another VI.

Syntax

object.Run([async])

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
async	Boolean	If TRUE, you do not need to wait for the VI to finish running. The default is FALSE.

Return Value

none
