• How to understand the context of the sequence of time real labview

  Does anyone know how Labview RT to understand the context of teststand sequence? My sequence context is defined as "TS. SequenceContext' like the screenshot in attachment.

  If we point a VI for that sequence context then who use VI of teststand? and must add this VI to the Explorer of Projectr of Labview RT system to build the project?

  I use 2009 Labview and teststand 4.2.1.

  Thank you very much

  LabVIEW RT does not support the ActiveX required for TestStand.

• Do I have to close the 'context of the sequence' in Labview?

  Hello

  I pass the Teststand SequenceContext for Labview to access step.

  Now my question is: do I have to close the past SequenceContext-reference mentioning 'close' in Labview?

  Or this reference is automatically closed?

  Is it possible that the closure is NOT the reference takes memory?

  Thx for the help

  Hi OnlyOne,

  Any reference TestStand that you pass to your code as an input module will be automatically closed/released/managed by TestStand so you don't have to worry about the reference to the context of the sequence of your VI of closing.

• How to disable ToolTips in the TestStand sequence editor

  Hello

  is there a way to disable these bubbles villain in the TestStand sequence editor.

  For example, when I want to spend a FileGlobal which is a string that contains a number and step requires the numerical value, I need to use Val (FileGlobals.NumberString) and answers

  as soon as I write ' Val ("a ToolTip appears and tells me what I can do. But so far, not the worst problem in the development process it may happen, that I have to change the FileGlobal

  and that's the point, when ToolTips turn evil.

  I'm starting to fix the names of the variables in the steps and each time this nasty giant bubble. It is not only unnecessary, but also incredibly annoying at the moment.

  I really hope that there is a parameter that could help me or that developer NOR esteem team to add the posibility to disable these tooltips.

  PS: maybe not completely necessary to disable ToolTips, but perhaps to make their tiny and if the programmer is really interested in the content that could be extended by a click.

  I use TestStand 2013 and TestStand 2011.

  Thanks in advance

  I think what you describe is the function "Tip." You can stop these appear automatically.

  The setting is located in the Station Options > Preferences > Expression editing Options

  My screenshots are from 2014, but it's the same on 2013. Not sure about 2011.

  

• Is it possible data passing between the screws running simultaneously in 2 separate teststand sequences?

  I have a vi that I want to run in a teststand sequence and then call another vi in a separate sequence, running in parallel. Is there a way of transmitting data dynamically between the two, the execution of vis?

  Just realised I can still use FVGs between the two sequences.

• Problems during execution of a LabVIEW VI in a new thread under TestStand sequence and execution of the MainSequence in step by step mode

  Hello

  We want to run a VI in LabVIEW (LV2011) at the same time to the execution of a sequence of test of TestStand (TS2010). The VI should view the condition of the equipment, while the test sequence is written in TestStand. It would be a nice feature of debugging the TestStand sequence while watching the State of the material in the LabVIEW Panel, too.

  This is where it's our problem. Imagine that you have a MainSequence calling a subsequence in a new thread, which runs the LabVIEW VI. After the call, the MainSequence continues its progression, as it is configured to do this. But if we want to execute the MainSequence in step parallel execution of VI mode, we can do that. The controls for "Step Out" etc. are grey.

  I tried to build a very simple example to explain what I mean. It's just a sequence and a LabVIEW VI, no real functionality, just take as an example for our problem.

  Any tips? What we're doing wrong? Is there something that needs to be changed in the LabVIEW VI?

  Best regards

  Manual

  You should use the monitor of the termination and the ExternallySuspended APIs for the EIS to running asynchronously. There are screws of wrapper around these APIs in the LabVIEW TestStand palette.

  For more details see using the API for the following:

  Thread.ExternallySuspended

  Execution.InitTerminationMonitor

  Execution.GetTerminationMonitorStatus

  Unless I am struggling to understand what you're asking, if you are using these APIs, you should be able to make it work as you are eager to do things.

• Get the context of the sequence of other connectors (active) in the batch processing model

  TestStand 2014 - model updated the batch

  LV2014

  System controls an environmental Chamber and doing trials on 4 of the UUT.  Room Enviromental is the shared resource and is controlled by the synchronization of thread only lot.  A UI TempMonitor of Labview (also synchronized lot) pops up, until you reach the target temperature and soaking time is over (so you can monitor returns to the House and see the amount of time remaining.  It all works fine in the system of warnings in.

  Now, there is a new requirement to take permanently UUT s to ensure that they remain in the State during the temperature ramp and soak period.  The simple answer is to integrate this track in TempMonitor UI because it has access to all relevant data pads.  However, I would need to do an end run around traditional return since it is only run by one of the four (up to).

  My thought is that if I had access to all active sockets sequence contexts, I could ask them their index and State, follow up and write the results to réécrirait a local variable before leaving the user interface.  The only thing that prevents me from going forward, it's that I don't know how to get the engine to give me the sequence for each Active socket contexts (0-3 which may be disabled via the setting ContinueTesting false instead of disable flag, it is a product of use pass 3rd batch of party model, so the executions of people with disabilities are marked as completed when running rather than wait).

  Or, Alternatively, how inspect all executions and to determine what decision he belongs (if necessary, because my data acquisition engine runs in its own, hidden, execution).

  Thanks for any help,

  Mike Webster

  Actually, I was looking for a way to get the SequenceContext for the other active sockets that launched the TempMonitor GUI, so I could put results in the other sockets directly.

  However, I gave it, and instead I am launch the GUI TempMonitor in its own thread and have each socket to monitor the status of USE on its own with a separate VI until what the ramp / soak temperature is how the GUI will highlight Boolean StationGlobal that triggers the individual to continue.  More complicated, but also in the spirit of TestStand to things, I think.

• Context of the sequence becomes invalid when the runtime is longer

  I have a sequence that loop for about 70 k iterations (which is pretty huge). The sequence called a subsequence where the inhabitants of the sequence called are modified. Question is, around 65 th iteration k, I get an error message indicating that the reference of the local past is invalid. The number of iterations when the error occurs varies from one computer to another, but always in the 65 k range. When I try to run another sequence (a single) consecutively, I get an "out of memory" error I guess the reason why the local reference is not valid because TS execution stops when the memory TS gets the complete decision-making context of sequence and therefore the reference local section not valid.

  I would like to know how to reduce the consumption of memory of TS because I disabled the result of record for all the result of sequences (Configure-> Options of Station-> run), disabled registration for each iteration of the loop, optimize no reentrant calls thi sequence is also enabled. I even tested with just this sequence of sequence and I wonder if there is a maximum number of threads of execution when a loop.

  Hello

  I tried this:

  Main sequence called a sub sequence, which includes 3 stages of instruction.

  I have a loop sequence sup to 75 k with result logging enabled.

  TS runs successfully - no problems.

  Try to jump steps (one at a time) in the sequence of sub to know at what stage leads to this question.

  Also try to reproduce using a simple sequence (that you can post online).

• context of the sequence

  Hi all

  Is there a difference in execution time to pass a value using in Labview (v/s) son calling the sequence context and then call the property set?

  kindly let me know.

  Hello Padugur,

  Search in this thread:

  Context and sequence settings

  Wire are normally and parameters are faster then by setting a value via a property node.

• Display a default sous-suite when opening the file in the editor of TestStand sequence

  Is there a way to set the default display sequence when open a file of sequence?

  Seems that the steps for MainSequence are generally displayed first what existing openning sequence.

  How I put it to display an another sous-suite when I open the movie file, I created.

  Or if it displays one sous-suite other than MainSequence, how to set this back to display by default when MainSequence reopenning the file in TestStand.

  Jeff,

  Sequences are stored in files in sequence in the order of 0 - N.  The default sequence will be the 0th.  To change the order in the sequence editor, you can click on the bar of the above sequence sequences.  Keep clicking until there is no arrow on it.  He is the true order of the sequences in the file in the sequence.  Drag the desired visible upward.

  See the image so that you know what I mean.

  Hope this helps,

  I want to make an event handler when the end of a sequence that will trigger a change in the value of a control.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

• VI LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit elements in a TestStand sequence does not work with a LabVIEW 8.5 run-time engine

  Hi all

  I'm using LabVIEW 8.5.1 and TestStand 4.1. I did a sequence TestStand with a VI in this document, which uses items Report Generation Toolkit. On my machine I use LabVIEW and TestStand development system license. On another machine I use TestStand with basic deployment license and I chose the LabVIEW 8.5 run-time engine in the Configuration of the adapter. Everything works well except this VI with elements of Report Generation Toolkit. The error message shows that the VI is not executable. It works well only after I installed with a trial license and selected LabVIEW LabVIEW 8.5 development system in the Configuration of the adapter.

  I found other posts and a document in the knowledge base with a similar problem: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/8A0E6274D9BD7B1986256F62006AD402?OpenDocument but I am not no EXE files in my sequence, so I do not know how to fix mine. Someone has an idea?

  
  

• Read command line arguments to TestStand sequence start, moving within the sequence

  Start a sequence by using a batch file and add command line arguments. Example: "MySequence.seq Arg1.

  Now, within the sequence I want to read this first (and another) argument "Arg1".

  There is a stage in the ActiveX for that, giving a type (object reference) channels, see screenshot.

  Question: How to use this reference to read the argument?

  Honestly I don't think that you are using it correctly.  I think that your application in your UI Manager must handle this.  However, to answer your question:

  According to the TestStand help CommandLineArguments property is of type string.  It comes to aid of TestStand as well:

  Channels
  A collection of strings. You can get a reference to the collection of the ApplicationMgr.CommandLineArguments property, the ExpressionEdit.GetValidEvaluationTypes and ExpressionEdit.SetValidEvaluationTypes methods and the ApplicationMgr.ProcessUserCommandLineArguments event.

  Properties
  Count (read-only)
  Agenda

  Methods
  Add
  Claire
  Insert
  Delete

  Looks like you can use activeX not use Count or properties of the element to retrieve a single argument.

  Hope this helps,

• Help: Configure the simple test sequence, operator selects particular test connects to the part of the teststand sequence file and then performs the test

  Hello

  I am very new to TestStand, please see the question below and give advice.

  I want to set up a simple test sequence.

  I want a message to popup on the screen that asks the operator what unit of 6 units (maximum 10) to test (i.e. There is say box of 6 to 10 s to select from).

  Then the sequence goes to the specific part of the sequence and performs the test on a unit that either has been selected.

  What is the best way to do it?

  I use pop-up message windows to do this? and if so what should I connect to the correct part of the sequence file?

  Pop-up message windows allow only 6 options to select from?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You can do this by using the method of message popup. You can ask the user what unit want to run message by inserting in the expression of the message in the message popup step parameters. Something like below

  "Enter the number of execution unit.

  1 Unit1

  2 unit 2

  .......

  10 Unit 10 "

  then check the 'Enable response text box"tab is different from the stage. When the user enters the unit number you can get the value entered by the user by inserting the below statement post expression of message popup step parameters

  Locals.String = Step.Result.Response

  Note: The string is a local variable to be set.

  Convert string to number and send that output to pass the expression you can use a sequence of call step to call the sequence according to which must be performed. (I hope your each unit will file separate sequence)

  I hope that this solves your problem. If you do not understand please let me know so that I can put a small example and send it to.

  See you soon,.
