Use this template to build a simple state machine design pattern. Each state executes code and determines which state to transition to.

If you want to handle errors in a more sophisticated way, consider adding an "Error" state that will process errors that occur during other states. 0 Initial State False stop Panel event handler While Loop UI queue name True create if not found False 0 "" False status 0 code "" source error in -1 max queue size TC Setup Data False Start TC Data Acq "" null 0 False 10072 0x0 0x4059000000000000 10143 "" 0x4024000000000000 2 OnboardClock "" 10116 0x4039000000000000 UInt16 UInt16
