Hi guys,
I found how to execute sequence from python via ActiveX object.
https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA00Z0000019LpMSAU&l=cs-SK
But I would also like to set environment.
Something like /env argument for command line:

How can I achieve this?
Hello,
I'm trying to convert a decimal number ranging from 0 - 65535 to its 2 Byte HEX value (number or string doesn't matter) using Teststand's built in functions. How would I do this?
Example:
Decimal Value HEX Value
1 --> 0001
255 --> 00FF
65535 --> FFFF
Any help is greatly appreciated, THANKS
I am experiencing some troubles with a how TestStand is treating errors from a VI Module called from a Packed Library.
1. I am reading some data from a serial port
2. Every now and then I read from the port and it throws an error (I am still able to read the bytes though).
3. I am clearing that specific error before exiting the VI
4. VI Outputs the clean error cluster and the read bytes from the serial port
5. If an error occurred inside the VI, and even through the wired cluster output is w/o error, the string read from the serial port is not updating the local variable inside of TestStand.
6. Post expressions still execute
Anyone have any thoughts? I have tried ignoring run-time errors already...
How to modify the sequence file version?
I am a new learner for teststand.
In the sequence file property , the software default version is 0.0.0.0.
Is it possible to change it from 0.0.0.0 to 1.0.0.0. just use an expression?
I have a B&K 4384 and I want to know if it works properly if I connect it to NI 9234 or it will be damaged.
Hi,
I write codes to get the current user information.But it shows an error after running. So I run the vi step by step and found it occured at currentuser property. It seems the currentuser property output is not a refnum. This caused the problem.
Can anybody help me tell me the reason?
Thank you in advance!
Teststand opens okay
"edit search directories" also opens okay
but when I change something inside "edit search directories" (say add a directory), teststand enters (not responding) state.
I'm writing to a database that has a specific format for process monitoring. The problem I'm facing is that when I use run selected steps, only the data from the selected steps is being written to the database and therefore causing a shift in my data because the other steps aren't being recorded. I was hoping that run selected step would mark the other steps as skipped in which I'm able to see if the step is skipped to write null data for that step. What run selected step seems to do is recreate the sequence to only have the selected steps in it, in which I can't detect any skipped steps. Has anyone faced this issue? Am I understanding the how run selected steps work, and if so is there a way to override this to perform in the way that I would like where run selected steps just skips the steps that aren't selected?
Hi,
I tried to run TestStand from python script.
I use example from NI site:
https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA00Z0000019LpMSAU
BUT, at the end I got leakage window warning (attached image).
What is the correct way to finish my work?
my configuration:
Python version 3.6.4
TestStand 2017
Hello everyone,
I am using a TestStand action step to call a NI-272x reference VI (attached). TestStand complained that the VI is not executable when I configure the LabVIEW adapter to use the LabVIEW runtime engine. The issue goes away if I configure the adapter to the LabVIEW development environment. The VI runs just fine in LabVIEW. This is a deployment machine and I am trying to use the LabVIEW runtime engine, not the development license. I attached the MAX report. Would anyone please tell me what is going on and how to solve it?
Thank you,
Hi,
I was trying to run a TestStand Test sequence using the simple teststand user interface and I encoutred the following error :
Error executing substep 'Post'.
The method was called from an invalid step type
Stack Trace:
at NationalInstruments.AsamXilSteps.Core.RuntimeManager.ExecuteStep(SequenceContext thisContext, String stepWrapperId)
Knowing that I'm using ASAM XIL steps in my sequence to use VeriStand channels.
What could be the cause of this error and how could we solve it ?
I am using the Python Adapter in TestStand 2014 to send commands to my device and get back values such as voltage\temperature\current. When I send commands that report back a single value, I am able use the String or Number Return Value options to get the values. However, when the method returns a value and then prints out information, TestStand returns an error and I am unable to collect the data.
Example:
Get_Status() returns:
Result: 1
"Voltage: 14
Current: 5
Temperature 30"
I also noticed that after I run the test, if I try to run a second unit (even if it is the same unit), the python seems to lock up and refuse to run any step. Once I terminate and run again (which presumably unloads python), it will work.

Hi
I have one question, how can one execution stop the other execution in parallel mode,
for example, teststand run two same executions in one time, when one execution run a specific sequence, this execution need stop the other execution, when the specific sequence was donw, continue the other execution.
Thanks in advance and looking for any suggestion if any one can help me.
Hi all,
I'm having an issue with the Deployment Utility.
After finally resolving all "problems" in our code the Deployment Utility finally allowed for the installer to be built.
But when executing the installer (which is meant to contain all packages and install them with no user choice) right after the start an error message appears claiming at least one "NI-DCPower Runtime" needs to be installed.
When double-checking the chosen packets the DCPower V19.5 is selected. Just in case something was missed out, the checkbox "Automatically Include Required Installers" was ticked. Unfortunately this didn't solve the situation.
A search for the runtime of DCPower didn't turn up any result.
Can anyone explain this behaviour or, preferred, offer a solution for this?
I am seeing this dialog box a couple times per day, but certainly not for every UUT that is run through:
This is with TestStand 2016 64bit.
I had made a change where I granted all users full permissions to the Cfg folder, and I thought that had solved the problem but it recently happened again even with these settings.
Does anyone know why this error happens? It seems to be recoverable in the sequence editor, if "OK" is clicked soon enough, but the operator interface just freezes and crashes.
Hi,
I Just designed the GUI based on the teststand default simple GUI. I just add the function that is to transport the variable between Teststand and labview . Attached please find software. The running process is OK but it would get an error the picture shows after I click the "EXIT" button. I am very confused about it .
I really hope someone can help me find the reason.
Thank you in advance!

TestStandからVIをモーダル表示させるとフロントパネルは表示されるのですが、
TestStandの後ろに表示されてしまいます（モーダル表示されない）。
VIの設定はダイアログにしています。
どうしたらよいでしょうか？
よろしくお願いいたします。
Using TestStand 2019 the sequence editor option to float a pane is greyed out. I've checked Configure>>Sequence Editor options>>UI Configuration and the lock is off (unchecked) and nothing else is checked except Display documents in Tabs.
Any Ideas as to why? According to Help I should also be able to drag off window to float but that doesn't work either. Rearrange and Hide all works.
