Updates the host VI front panel indicators with values obtained from the SIT Read VI.

Place the SIT Update Indicator VI next to a Case Structure inside a For Loop. The iteration of the For Loop determines the signal value that this VI writes to the current indicator. The value wired to the selector terminal of the Case Structure determines the indicator that this VI updates. For example, Case 0 specifies the value and indicator that correspond with the first probed signal, Case 1 specifies the value and indicator that correspond with the second probed signal, and so on.

Details  

	Raw Data specifies the values and dimensions of all probed signals. Data specifies the values of all probed signals. Dimensions specifies the dimensions of all probed signals. Each element pair specifies the length and width of a signal.
	error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs. The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurred before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code. Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node. status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE. code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code. source specifies the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
	Iteration specifies the index number of current probed signal that this VI is writing to an indicator. The default value of Iteration is 0, which corresponds to the first signal probed.
	Indicator Data returns the values specific to the current signal.
	Last Row Index returns the index number of the last row of Indicator Data. Use Last Row Index if you are probing a scalar or one-dimensional signal and are interested in only the latest data from that signal.
	error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces. Right-click the error out front panel indicator and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred. code is the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code. source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning.
	Timestamps returns the simulation time steps at which this VI returned each row of the Indicator Data parameter. The ith element of the Timestamps parameter corresponds to the ith row of the Indicator Data parameter.
