[>>>Srini<<<]

I need 2  clarifications

1. Does teststand operator interface  work with touchscreen displays?

2. If i am going to develop a .net windows applications which will provide functions as same as operator interface but with minimum functionalities like(Login,Exectue and Result display). Is it possible to use the components that are used in operator interface(Like ActiveX controls,Report display, Sequence file viewer etc., taken from the TestStand dlls)  in my windows forms???

Please Can any one Answer to the above qns.

Hi,

As long as your operating system on your touch panel computer is one of the supported operating systems for TestStand (i.e. Windows XP, 2000 etc.) you can use TestStand with the computer.  To answer your second question, you can use the TestStand API to create a simple operator interface through a Windows Form.  We actually have an example of a simple interface in VB and C# that you should start with and then take out the parts you do not want to use.  You can find these examples in <TestStand>\OperatorInterfaces\NI\Simple.  I would start with these and then customize as needed.
