Input value changing when passed from teststand to labview.

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi all

I am trying to pass hex value from teststand to my labview VI . When i am running the VI independently by giving value like 00000010 i am getting the expected output of the VI.  But when same value is passed through teststand from local variable , when it reaches VI input it is getting conerted to 000000A0 and so i am getting wrong output.

I am not able to understand how the value is getting changed at the input parameter when it is passed from teststand to labview.

Any ideas?

d10 is xA...

You have to configure your TS variable to be hexadecimal as well.....

I found out the mistake.  I was entering value in the wrong format in teststand.. instead of 0x10 i was entering only 010 and hence was getting converted to A.
