Using LabvIEW Ccontrol definitons

Hi there,
 
does anyone know, if it is possible to "import" a LabVIEW type definiton (created wit the control editor) directly in TestStand? Right at the moment, I'm getting a type defined enumeration from a VI that I'm calling: in the module / interface configuration, the possible values are visible, but I'm not able to create a custom data type from this control. I'd like to use that particular type definitions in my station globals.
 
Any ideas?
 
Regards
Oli

TestStand does not have the concept of an enumerated type.  So if you are trying to map to an enum, it will have to just map to a numeric variable.

If you are trying to map a cluster to TestStand, you can always create a VI that uses this cluster as a control or indicator, and define the type in the VI Call Configuration Dialog.
