Hello!
I need some advice on what the best method to do the following in Teststand. I have a PLC driven station and that will be communicating to the tester over the Ethernet IP toolkit. My question is: what do you suggest the best method to manage this since I will have multiple test sequence files to run based on the serial/model number given to me from the PLC.
- Should I modify the user interface and include a separate thread for the PLC communication.
- Create a upper level sequence and a LabView VI to handle the PLC com, then based on the serial number load the sequence and load it dynamically. If I do this how do I pass the pass/fail from the test sequence back to the upper level?
