Continous testing the same UUTs in batch

Hi everyone, 

 

my colleage and i are new in teststand, unfortunatly we have to do teststand without any teststand training.

 

We need to setup a workstation were we have/want/need:

 

  1. 6 Testsockets
  2. Continous testing in batch
    1. We want to use the standard user dialog (SN input..) only on the first loop of the sequence (as we have always the same UUT)
    2. We want to restart the same sequence on all sockets without any more dialog (continous run over some weeks)

 

We are struggling, deactivating the starting and ending dialog, because the .net assembly which manages the threads is doing some kind of magic in the background. We are aware of the sequence and model context, but we really dont understand how to skip this dialog Smiley Wink

 

Probably there is a easy way, in any case, help is highly appriciated....

 

Cheers and thanks

Using string functions to parse GNSS sentences

Can someone help with TS string functions?

 

My goal is to extract the first line starting with "$GPGGA", and then separate it into an array separating at the commas.

 

Sample input:

$GPGGA,211332.000,4202.4046,N,08802.0322,W,1,8,0.98,274.2,M,-34.1,M,,*6C
$PGTOP,3,AXN_3.20,8175,007-21-2014,GNSS_EXTRF_9600,007-05-2014,211333*03
$GPGGA,211333.000,4202.4046,N,08802.0322,W,1,8,0.98,274.2,M,-34.1,M,,*6D
$GPGGA,211334.000,4202.4046,N,08802.0322,W,1,8,0.98,274.2,M,-34.1,M,,*6A
$GNGSA,A,3,19,28,25,10,,,,,,,,,1.54,0.98,1.19*10

Is the "$" character special in TestStand?

 

FWIW in python I'd do

s.split('$GPGGA')[1].strip().split(',')

In my sequence of TS2016, there's a if...else if...else if...series flow.

but each time the last else if step was skipped even the else if condition is true.

I switch the last "else if" with previous "else if", the new last one still skipped.

anyone can tell why?

Text Data Log

At our company, we have about a half dozen engineers who share the same development tester.  We collect all sorts of data.  Most engineers only want to display the test name and results after the normal date stamp, tester number, time, operator number etc. Unfortunately, the current setup includes Terminations, Skipped, and Done.  This makes a data log unwieldy and difficult to parse.  Is there a way to direct TestStand to save only the test name and its associated results?  We don't use Labview so a solution would have to be something in the sequence or the use of CVI.  Thanks.

Hi,

I am using a Teststand simple user interface code. I have defined queue in the code and wanted to add the events which user generated. I can add the menu selected events to the queue in menu selection (event handler case). (I brought menu from full feature to simple user interface).

 But I want to add the Teststand buttons events like, Run current sequence, Run selected steps, Loop on selected steps, Exit etc.. which I defined for test application.

which part of the code in simple userinterafec I can enqueue this data. The flow for the above buttons handle by the mangers , so I couldn't get the flow of these buttons .

Can I build a 16 x 16 MIMO testbed using NI 2920 ?

$

I can only see 8x8 examples on NI MIMO using 292x .. However, I noticed on Ettus that they wrote 

 

If common PPS and 10 MHz signals are distributed to USRP N-Series devices, it is theoretically possible to build arbitrarily large MIMO systems. In practice, developers have built systems with up to 16 synchronized USRP devices.

 

and as I understand the N-series in Ettus are comparable to the 292x series in NI ..

 

Can anyone comment on the possibility on going high order to 16 x 16 using NI 2920 ??

Object Reference into Array of Result

$

0

I have a DLL that use the ResultList Array  to generate xml file.

It works fine with sequentialModel.

 

But doesn't work with parallelModel since the result of the test is contain in the object Reference Parameters.TestSocket.MainSequenceResults.

 

I try to derefence it as Locals.ResultList = *Parameters.TestSocket.MainSequenceResults but it cause a run-time error.

 

How do I convert the Parameters.TestSocket.MainSequenceResults to an Array of Result to match the one for sequentialModel?

 

Thanks
