Use the enumerated constant to create a list of strings you can cycle through.
The enumerated constant is similar to a ring constant.
Unlike the ring constant, the strings associated with an integer value are part of the data type. If you display a value from an enumerated constant, the string is displayed, instead of the number associated with it. If you need a set of strings that do not change, use this constant. Set the value by clicking inside the constant with the Operating Tool and enter the string. To add another item, click the constant and choose Add Item Before or Add Item After.
The numeric representation of an enumerated constant is unsigned byte, unsigned word, or unsigned long.
You cannot change the value of the enumerated constant while the VI runs. You can assign a label to this constant.
