When Using the State Diagram Toolkit, What Does Execution Mode of Single Step (Callable as SubVI) Mean?

Primary Software: LabVIEW Toolkits>>State Diagram Toolkit
Primary Software Version: 2.0
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software:

Problem: I am using the State Diagram Toolkit with LabVIEW and one of the options on the State Diagram Editor is to set the Execution Mode to Single Step (Callable as SubVI) instead of Continuous (Run to Completion). What is the difference between the two settings?

Solution: When using a State Diagram, there are two distinct ways they can be used. If you set the Execution Mode to be Continuous and the state diagram is in a subVI, then all the logic required for that State Diagram to terminate must be included in the subVI. The other option, Single Step (Callable as SubVI), will transition the state diagram from one state to the next, then exit the state diagram until it is called again. If the state diagram is in a subVI, this will allow new inputs into the subVI so that the next state transition has new data from the parent VI.
