When I started using TestStand my first question was, “how do I use this to make the creation of a test system faster?” I wanted to use LabVIEW and get a test system up and running quickly but I didn’t have any test executive infrastructure in place. I’m hoping to write a blog series on TestStand to aid in my learning. While, I’ve worked with LabVIEW for several years, I have not had much exposure to TestStand. Over the last year or so I’ve been working with NI TestStand quite a bit. Do this by going to the data source and setting it to the appropriate local variable. Then, we have to go into each of the limit steps an assign those to get their results from the appropriate local variables. Next go to the action step that calls the Sine Amplitude and Frequency step and assign the outputs to the newly created local variables. Go over to the variables area and right click to add to local numeric variable. To do this we will create two new local variables.

Go into each of these limit steps and update the limits to the desired amplitude and frequency limits, as shown in Figure 10.Drag two numeric limit steps after the Sine Amplitude and Frequency test and change their adapters to.Change the adapter to an action rather than a multiple numeric limit test as shown in Figure 9.Here is the process to move the Sine Amplitude and Frequency Test limits to their own sequence steps: This will also demonstrate the concept of using a variable, which we have not talked about yet. Putting each limit as its own step makes it a little easier to read the sequence. This can be nice because if you have multiple limits in one sequence step they are hidden away and not easily view without opening the step.

Starting with the q sequence file from part 2 and renaming it q, I’ll show how to turn the Sine Amplitude and Frequency Test into a subsequence.įigure 1 shows the sequences pane, right click and select insert sequence.Īnother method to set test limits is to make them their own test step. The difference between the two is that subsequence is not visible in file directory, it’s just stored in the main sequence. You can either have a sequence file call other sequence files or you can create a subsequence that is called from a main sequence. One way to build cohesion into a TestStand sequence is to make the separate tests (or whatever logical division you are using) into their own sequences.

Cohesion means that the all the code in one module is there to perform the one purpose of that module. Coupling means that code modules are for the most part independent and not too “coupled” together. That is, making code modules that are loosely coupled and have high cohesion. If you have ever read anything National Instruments puts out on good code development practices they always talk about coupling and cohesion. I wrote a little wrapper VI around this VI to search for the correct instrument, but search in a generic way related to the specific instrument instance (the serial number).

LabVIEW includes a VI called “Find VISA Resource.” See Figure. Well, I didn’t like doing this and found a simple way to avoid having to assign an alias to every instrument I assign.

That means my deployment doesn’t work and I have to install TestStand to modify the sequence file, or I have to rebuild the deployment with the new changes. The main problem is if MAX does not recognize the instrument, there is no way I can assign an alias to it.

#Labview 8.5 serial number driver

I had installed the Keysight connection expert software and VISA drivers, but I suspect some NI instrument driver didn’t get included in my installation. My test sequence required me to assign an alias to a Keysight instrument in NI-MAX, but MAX was not recognizing the instrument after the deployment. I’m sure there are solutions to this problem, but I have not dealt with that yet. If you uninstall things get left behind and it’s not always possible to easily create a restore point. As you may know, it can be difficult to test a deployment on a system that has previously had software installed on it. I then had to deploy these systems in our manufacturing plant onto computers that were new and newly baselined. The situation was I was building TestStand systems in the office and testing the installation on my computers there. I ran into a problem with the specific technique of providing an alias to an instrument and using it in a deployed system.

The source of the pain has been trying to deploy some TestStand systems into our manufacturing environment. Since I wrote those posts on TestStand I have been through a lot of pain with TestStand and have gained a lot of new experience. ​I wanted to add something related to my last post.
