You are inputting data that represents a circle. The circle data includes an x position, a y position, and a radius. All three pieces of data are double precision. In the future, you might need to store the color of the circle, represented as an integer. How should you represent the circle on your front panel window.

1. Three separate controls for the two positions and the radius
2. A cluster containing all of the data
3. A type definition containing a cluster
4. An array with three elements

Which of the following is the best method to update an indicator on the front panel?

1. Use a Value property node
2. Wire directly to the indicator terminal
3. Use a local variable
4. Use a functional global variable

You customize a control, select Control from the Type Def. Status pull-down menu, and save the control as a .ctl file. You then use an instance of the custom control on your front panel window. If you open the .ctl file and modify the control, does the control on the front panel window change?

1. Yes
2. No

What functionality do Control References provide?

1. Ability to add controls and indicators to a VI programatically
2. Access to the properties of Front Panel objects in subVIs
3. Control of multiple DAQ inputs through alias names
4. Ability to wire from controls to functions and subVIs
