Property Nodes are nodes that you can use in your Block Diagram to GET or SET properties on a local or remote application, VIs, and objects. Property Nodes allow you to programmatically control the properties of a Front Panel object, for example: color, visibility, position, behavior, etc.

You can use Property Nodes in two ways: Explicit that you choose what the Control/Indicator it referees to, or Implicit that is the case when you use a Reference wired to the Property Node that indicates what is LabVIEW item you referee.

Clicking on the Property, you can choose what Property you want to Read/Write. You choose if the Property Node is Read or Write by right-clicking on the Property Node selecting Change to Read or Change to Write. By default, the Property Node is set to Read.
