Open Sub Vi Front Panels under specific circumstance

I have some test code, not of my design. 

Rather than redesign the full functionality, I collected the main functions into Sub Vi's and put them in a event structure.

 

The sub Vi's are configured to not open when executed, the Main Front Panel just allows a user to enter info, the provides Pass or Fail.

 

(I'm creating and distributing an executable file)

 

I would like the ability to open the Sub Vi front panels for future  trouble shooting purposes.

The determination would be made by login/password, which I'm familiar with, but 

I have no experience with forcing a Sub Vi front panel to open under specific circumstances.

 

The question, as I typed it in the subject returned no results. 

I'm sorry if this is a repeat question !

You can use an Invoke Node to open or close the front panel.

There are property nodes for each vi's, who can be called in case structures : you can change the behaviour of a front pannel according to an error or what you want... (even in .exe mode)
