Modify your vi that you created in the previous part of the lab to calculate the velocity of an air flow given the following inputs: Static Pressure - Ps Total Pressure - Pt Temperature - Ts Density - p Values of the inputs should be entered via controls on the front panel and the result should be displayed using two types of indicators on the front panel. The vi should do the calculation when the "Run" button is pressed and keep the result until the "Clear" button is pressed. Save the new modified vi to the same folder as the other files in this lab. Send all files in this folder to a compressed (zipped) folder named "YOUR_NAME ME446L Lab 2.zip" Upload this file to the Canvas site under the Lab 2 submission feature. Things to consider while you are working on this and before you submit it. 1. I am looking for neat, well organized, well documented work products. 2. While you may consult with other members of the class, you should submit your own, unique work product. 3. Your final product should be thoroughly tested such that it works as designed and as many bugs as possible have been found and fixed. I will try to break the VI that you submit.

The value changes back once LabVIEW has read the value. Consider the effect of the different mechanical action settings might have on your vi. Finish your vi from this point such that the run message is displayed when the "Run" button is pushed and is cleared from the front panel when the "Clear" button is pushed. The "Exit" button should terminate the vi no matter what state the vi is in. Open a blank vi On the front panel, place an enum control.
