Using Switch Excequtive with NI TestStand

[msh88_eng]

Hello

I am beginner in NI teststand & NI switch excequtive.

I have NI SCXI-1001 Chassis with NI SCXI-1130 switching slots.

I need a quick help on how to use switching in NI TestStand. What  I am going to do is: generating a signal by a RIGOL Function Generator and switch this signal to excite some piezoelectric sensors and reading the response signals by a Tektronix oscilloscope.

I have read these documents:

NI TestStand 4.0 Quick Start Guide

Getting Started with TestStand

GETTING STARTED GUIDE NI Switch Executive

and so on

But still, I can not switch the signals with my hardware.

Is there any Tutorial to help me in doing my work?

Is there any VI code,  NI TestStand Sequence or Example which can help me?

Please help me asap

Thanks in advance,

Mohammad

Hi Mohammad,

The following are a few documents that outline various ways (including with the Switch Executive) to incorporate switches into your TestStand sequence:

Hi Mohammad,

going even one step back... have you verified that your switches / routes are working properly using NI MAX? Are the IVI sessions set up right?

Using Switch Executive in TestStand is pretty straightforward.
