Printing a HiQ Notebook

Complete the following steps to print a part or all of a HiQ notebook. You can control when printing occurs through a front panel Boolean control.

  1. Place a Case structure on the block diagram.
  2. Select the Print Notebook VI on the Functions»Communication»HiQ palette and place it in the True subdiagram of the Case structure. This prints the notebook only when the case is True.
  3. Set up a False case in the Case structure to do nothing.
  4. Place a Boolean constant on the block diagram.
  5. Wire the Boolean constant to the Display Print Setup Dialog input on the inside of the Case structure. If you want the dialog to appear automatically, set the Boolean constant to TRUE. Otherwise, set it to FALSE.
  6. On the front panel, place a Boolean control that specifies to print the notebook. Wire this control to the Case structure selector terminal on the block diagram.
