• Get the result of the sequence by programming

  Hi all

  in my custom operator interface to save the event EndExecution callback to accomplish several final operation.

  What I can't do is to retrieve the result of the sequence ('Success' or 'Failure', exactly the one that is displayed in the default report under the voice "Result USE") using methods or properties API.

  I've tried Execution.ResultStatus property and the SequenceContext.SequenceFailed property, but none of them works.

  How can I get the result of the sequence?

  Thank you

  Process templates are already generating a Message from the user interface "TestingComplete" you can register an event reminder on.  It also transmits the result as part of the parameter string State.  The attached excerpt from LV show what the VI recall may contain to handle the event.  If you need to deal with other UI event codes you can wire the event directly number in the structure box for the 34 decimal 'TestingComplete' event code.

  P.S., the event is the same that Norbert has pointed out, event UIMessageEvent...

• The execution of the sequence TestStand in LabVIEW via TS - API: execution different times for the same sequence

  Hello - the members of the Forum.

  I have a problem about the execution of a TestStand sequence into LabVIEW. I created a VI that offers the possibility to choose a sequence TestStand-file and then executes the sequence using the TestStand API. The implementation is based on an example in C++-Application found the following link:

  http://forums.NI.com/T5/NI-TestStand/unreleased-references-using-engine-API-in-C/m-p/2927314#M46034

  The app works pretty solid where the VI is executed the first time. The VI treats the sequence chosen in an acceptable time.

  But where execution is started again, the sequence takes approx. 30 sec more than in the first case.

  So far I have not found a solution and hope someones got a clue about this problem...

  I use 2013 LabVIEW and TestStand 2013.

  I enclose my own VI, a sequence of the specimen with a small sample of VI, so you can reproduce the problem.

  Kind regards

• executable file does not appear in the list of programs

  After installation of my executable it does not appear in the list of all Windows programs. I've built a lot of executable and installers before but this is the first time I see this. The folder is created in the Program Files (x 86) directory and the program performed well when I double-click on the .exe.

  This sw was initially developed with LV10 with WinXP then moved to LV2012 with Win7 64 bit and then to LV2013 and it uses a plugin architecture (I'm still not very familiar with this).

  I also have these following questions:

  1. I don't remember so many folder created after building an exe file (see photo "filelist.png") before moving this application to LV2013, why all these dataX folders are created? (associated with the plugins?). Except for the data folder containing my ini and xml configuration files these folders all contain a single mnu file.

  2 - Why are there some records of pilot instrument included in the compilation? (Agilent, Keithley and Tek) I'm also using other equipment, and they do not appear in the construction. These problems with the build because of their tree VI live I had to either check turn debugging on or off the use of the diagram structure on these screws diagram which is certainly not the right way to do it.

  3. probably the most important, what would be a document of reference on how to create an executable and a Setup program for an application architecture plugin.

  Thank you

  You use LVOOP you use the NI Report Generation Toolkit, which is implemented using OBJECT oriented programming. Already this explains some of the additional folders that you see.

  Other components are of course part of lvlibp (packed project library) and where it will not integrate the EXE itself. Also their dependencies... which may explain support directories (data1, data2,...).

  Referring to other settings, the log file does not help much. So we can not tell you why the installation program does not create a program shortcut in "start > programs". If you check the "shortcuts", you should be able to see if there is a routine in the Setup to create such a link or not. If the parameter is there, but the installation fails to create, it can be connected to the user rights that you use to run the installer...

• After the passage of a different program and vice versa, Premiere Pro will play is no longer the sequence

  It took me a while to limit this problem. Quite randomly, my sequence would not apply.  I finally reduced to this.  I hope that the 28/01/16 update should fix, but it didn't.

  Summary:

  -commutation of Premiere Pro to a different program, while a sequence is stopped and then backward, tilt will cause Premiere Pro is no longer playing the sequence.  .

  Follow this exactly to reproduce the problem:

  (1) create a new file with a new sequence inside

  (2) create a minute long clip of anything (bars + tone, color matte, text, etc.) and drag it into the timeline

  3-hit game

  (4) setback (this is important!, see below)

  (5) to switch to another program, either via alt - tab or open another program so it gets the focus.

  6) move to Premiere Pro

  7-piece struck again, sequence no longer will play is not the expected behavior.  PP must be rebooted to solve the problem.

  If you do not hit 'stop' to step 4 and let the sequence to keep playing:

  -When you pass on Premiere Pro and then return, you can press the stop button.  When you click the button new play things will work as expected.

  My configuration: win 7 + Premiere Pro 2015.2 release, build 9.2.0 (41), i7 Proc/32 GB memory

  My solution (sad), it of that if I need to go to another program for a bit, make sure to hit 'play' in Premiere Pro before moving on to another program and let it in the background.  When I come back I can play and stop as usual.

  Hey thanks, that the explanation is logical. "Mallocing everything in desperation" will be my new go to words to describe my state of mind sometimes.

  Fixed it!, but it was something else. :

  I tried to uncheck "allow applications to take exclusive control it" box and rebooted, verified that the box was always checked... but the first has always had the same problem. The stop/play button icon changed as you noted, but the timeline not yet played.  This led me on a path of futzing with different combinations of audio material.

  Difficulty of summary:

  -First, change the 'default' output to some other active sound output (even if it is not physically used), then change it back.

  (1) in the first Audio hardware preferences, I changed "Default Output" for "Realtek Digital Output" (which is enabled in my sound control panel, but nothing is physically connected).

  (2) I went back to the first, and he could still play the timeline after alt-tabbing to other programs and return.  There was no audio since obviously I have nothing plugged on my outputs digital.

  (3) 'Exit by default' Changed in first preferences Audio equipment Audio back to "Speakers (Realtek High Definition)", tried the stuff of alt - tab again and as if by magic it worked like the good old days (early 2015).  Even still, it still works very well even though I have the checkboxe "exclusive control" ticked off now (parameters of sound from speakers in the Panel).

  Notes:

  -I don't know if step 2 is required.  Things are working fine for me and no matter what I change, I can't do things in the State 'broken '.

  -At some point, in the sound control panel, I changed one of the outputs digital to be default, but that doesn't seem to make a difference at first. Whether or not this has finally made a difference affecting the steps above, I don't know.

  BTW, audio installation is:

  Audio is Realtek High Definition Audio, version 21/08/2013 6.0.1.7023 (hardware Audio first output by default is "Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio)"

  I have a 3 GB Evga 780 also graphics card, but no HDMI outputs are used/activated.

• Set the value of the parameter in the call sequence by programming

  Is there a way to set the value of the parameters of a call sequence with a vi with the context of the sequence in the order which is called? Cases not the same subseqence with a vi in the mainsequence maybe?

  

  In your VI, I think you should be able to set the value of Step.TS.SData.ActualArgs.paranumber.Expr to the value of the setting that you want. (This property is visible in the Variables pane, only if you have configured the Options of Station to display hidden properties). Note that the purpose of the step should refer to the sequence of your call step.  Also, remember that the property represents an expression, so if you want to pass the value 33, you must enclose the value in quotes ("33").

• How to find the sequence number of av

  Downloaded eset uninstaller, but he asked for the sequence number

  Hello Damien,.

  If you don't know, go to the icon of the program or file name and right-click on it and select properties and in the window that opens, read on the top row of tabs up until you get to the Details tab, click to open the tab. The sequence number is given here?

  If not, a freeware for you program called siw (System Information for Windows), download it here: http://download.cnet.com/SIW-Technician-s-Version/3000-2094_4-10915770.html . The application requires no installation, you simply double-click the name of the executable file, and the program opens to the software section. Scan down the list until you find the applications tab. Click to open your list and find details of eset and see if the sequence number is in the list.

  One of these two approaches should solve the problem for you. Let me know how you fare.

• Data transmission between screws using call of reference without actually executing the vi

  Hi, I was wondering if you can pass data between the screws by using call of reference without actually executing the vi (ie: not having the façade appears during execution). Is this possible?

  While I'm here I might ask as well on the transmission of data between the screws I'm trying to pass a flag to a vi value to another. Because of the way the program is setup, I can't wire this value directly. Y at - it another (fast/efficient) way to pass data between two screws during execution (other than shared variables). For what it's worth this application will be built into an executable file, so data transiting will have to work for it as well.

  Thank you

  You have the choice:

  • shared variables (as you mentioned)
  
  
  • global variables
  
  
  • queues
  
  
  • notifiers
  
  
  • control references and properties of the value

• Change the folder of default reports from outside the sequence editor

  Hello

  I want to set the path to the folder of the regular reports of TS (xml) outside the sequence editor, i.e. in a txt file. I would like to load this value in the sequence or the performance of model sequential (to read this file). Play with what I achieved only copy reports to different my folder both outside. No one knows how to correctly do this operation?

  See you soon,.

  K

  I have accomplished this setting the path of the report dynamically, using the ReportOptions reminder in my process model.

  I had set the following report options:

  Parameters.ReportOptions.DirectoryType = "SpecificDirectory".

  Parameters.ReportOptions.Directory = 'C:\\Program Files\\Functional Test\\Reports\\' + Parameters.UUT_PN

  Parameters.ReportOptions.BaseName = 'report '.

  Parameters.ReportOptions.UseFormatForExtension = TRUE

  Parameters.ReportOptions.Extension = «»

  Parameters.ReportOptions.ReportFilePath = «»

  Parameters.ReportOptions.NewFileNameForEachUUT = TRUE

  Parameters.ReportOptions.AddTimeAndDateToFileName = TRUE

  Parameters.ReportOptions.GeneratePath = TRUE

  arameters. ReportOptions.Format = "html".

  The second entry above, I set the directory based on the number of game USE which is analyzed by the operator.  So in your case, you will need to set the "Parameters.ReportOptions.Directory" item based on a path read you a text file.   According to the structure of your text, file, get the path of the report (from file) could be done in a few differnet ways...

• Newbie needs help on the sequence

  Hello

  I just try to schedule something wih a sequence but it seems that I am quite familiar with the basic things that LabView. I am therefore asking for help.

  I want to do is start the program wait for the button to be pressed, and then turn on the LED for a second and then wait for the button to complete the sequence and execution of the program. Please see the attached VI.

  I discovered that by placing the button outside the while loop not taste it in the loop. But if I place inside how can I sample it in the other loop. Or do I need a totally different approach?

  Thanks for any help

  Martin,

  LV is a "data flow programming language". That said, the block diagram reflects the data sources and data sinks and how they are connected.

  A rule of thumb says: a function can run as soon as all the entries are valid values, once it finishes its execution, it will pass the values valid in all its outputs.

  As a result of this sentence, you can get rid of the structure of the sequence.

  You are looking for other buzz words are:

  -machine States (architecture)

  -synchronization of loops

  Have you worked through the LV classes or "getting started"?

• Executable test sequence TestStand deployment

  Hello

  I would like to automate my test using TS environment and the BT.

  My goal is to have one machine with the development of TS (Inc. LV) for construction of test software that is compiled in one .exe file to run on the tested machine that does not have TS or LV

  Can I use the software for this task?

  It is for the main development computer:

  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

  779601 35	NEITHER Developer Suite, English, include 3 years SSP	1
  779602 35	NEITHER Developer Suite Automated Test Option, include 3 years SSP	1

  It is for the machines to run the tests on:

  777774-3505 NI TestStand Base Deployment Engine License 5 unit Bundle

  I would like to have an option to monitor the performance of the tests on each machine and if necessary to perform debugging on the tested machine operations.

  If the package above will provide this capability so where can I find the documentation to create .exe files to run on test computers?

  If not, what software will provide this capability?

  Thank you

  His Lev

  Lev,

  These are the correct packages for TS development and deployment.  The only thing is that you have little debugging with the deployment license features.  If you want to debug, so instead of the deployment license they have licensed TestStand Debug.

  http://www.NI.com/TestStand/deploy-compare/

  More about licenses: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/B4B7C4ADB9B21B3F86256D360061891F

  One thing you should realize is that TestStand creates no executables.  Because TS is essentially a scripting language, you deploy the raw files.  These raw files feeding the TestStand engine and execute the steps in order.

  TestStand comes with 10 different (fully customizable) User Interfaces.  What are executables and run above the TestStand engine.  They allow you to run your sequence files (mostly scripts).  You will only need to use 1 of them.  The User Interface is so technically the executable for a deployment machine.

• Generic icon in the Add/Remove Programs list

  Hello to you all, useful forum fans!

  I have a nice custom icon that I built in my specs of the executable version, but when I use an installer to install my program, the icon in the Add/Remove Programs list is the software generic one (with the box open and CD).  How can I get my custom icon to use in the list as well?  I'm using LabVIEW 8.5.1 (and wishing my company should pay for 2010! ).

• Loop through the sequences selected using set of entry points into LabVIEW OI

  Hi all

  I have an operator Interface where the operator has the option to select specific measures and loop over the sequence selected according to the needs.

  

  Everything works as expected, but the customer wants to remove the default loop configuration pop-up box.

  

  Must be defined by programming the parameters of the loop (and not by the user). I figured out how to build arguments interactive but don't know how to spend it.

  

  Any ideas / suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.

  Kind regards

• XML file in the sequence

  Hello

  I have the sequence calling executable and I want to pass as a representation xml argument of the file currently open in sequence.

  "I tried to pass something like - RunState.SequenceFile.Path.GetXML(XMLOption_NoOptions,0), but I get only.

  How can I reach it? I don't mind if it passes the file xml or xml as a string. Thank you very much!

  There are two XML formats. One returned by GetXML is used for reporting XML, not the sequence files. The format of XML sequence is obtained by replacing the FileWritingFormat of the XML (seqfile. AsPropertyObjectFile(). FileWritingFormat) if it is not already set to that, then by saving the file on the disk. You can serialize the file of sequence data in a similar XML format using Engine.SerializeObjects () using the serialization SerializationOption_UseXmloption, but it is not a movie file. You must deserialize by using Engine.UnserializeObjects to read in a file of sequence.

  If explain you more in detail what you are trying to do, I might suggest what might be the best approach.
