Run Seq immediately (auto) after UI start

 I have to run the Seq  file Immediately  after  I start The   User Interface   without  the Entrypoint Buttons

Are you using a custom UI?  If so then you have several options.

Option 1: Button.DoClick.  You can call this method any time in your code for the TestStand button that is connected to your entry point.  This dynamically clicks the button.

Option 2: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/146D372C1F807E6D862567E7004881AB

Hopefully these help,

There are commandline parameters you can use to load and run a sequence, so just specify the correct commandline parameters when launching your UI. You can create a Windows' shortcut which does this.

Thanks guys.

Doug and Jiggawax,

This brings me to another question that has been on my mind:  I need to Create Custom Entry Point buttons on my Simple OI user interface.

What I want to do is the following:

* Create specific entry point buttons that point to and execute a subsequence within my main sequence file.  All of my subsequences that are being called in my main sequence are a certain type of test.  Can I use the command lines for this or is there a more efficient way to do this?

Thanks!

See the following:

There are command line options to run a specific sequence in a specific file, so you should be able to do what you are asking.

If you don't want to launch a new process though, you want a button on the existing UI, it might be best to create a new process model execution entry point or your own custom code for running such a sequence.

Hope this helps,
