Keyboard operation In TestStand and LabView

[irina]

We use the TestStand to create the test sequence.To programm the sequence we are using the LAbView.
In LabView We created the VI which can accept the keyboard input.
But when we run this Vi from the TestStand this functionality becomes disable.
What cwn we do to enable the keyboard input in VI , that Called from TestStand?
Does the TestStand accept the keyboard input or the user can operate only with mouse?

I have a couple VIs that permit keyboard input while running with TestStand and have no problems and didn't have to do anything to either TestStand or LabVIEW to enable keyboard entry.

When you specified the module, did you select Show VI Front Panel When Called and have you made the VI modal to TestStand? Maybe the problem is just that the VI or your string control on the VI doesn't have focus.

What versions of TestStand and LabVIEW are you using. Could you maybe attach the VI and a sample sequence that exhibits the behavior you mention?
