ActiveX use in TestStand - Do it work with ActiveX controls?

[mfitzsimons]

I have an activeX control that I use all the time in LabVIEW with no problems. I tried to find it in TestStand using the ActiveX adapter and the control does not appear on the list. Why? I try to select the *.ocx file and it says the control is not registered. It is!

Hi Matt,

Ensure that your adapters are configured correctly. To do so, click on Configure Menu Option and select Adapters. Click on "ActiveX/COm" and click Configure. Ensure that the checkbox for "Show ActiveX Controls when Specifying a Module" is checked.

You should be able to see all the activeX controls registered on the system, when you specify the module for your activeX step.

Hope this helps.
