Loading Multiple Vision Builder 3.0 Inspections into Memory using ActiveX

[Johnny_Bolano]

I am currently running a TestStand 3.5 sequence where I Open, Run, and then Close inspections sequentially using ActiveX calls to VBAI Sever (3.0) created in LabVIEW 8.20.  This is causing my test time to increase dramatically.  I would like to be able to load the inspections I plan to run in memory during the ProcessSetup and then run them during the MainSequence when needed. 

Is this possible?

Thank you.

Hello Johnny,

Thank you for using National Instruments Discussion Forums.  There is actually a really good tutorial and example utility that allows you to configure VBAI Inspections for use in Test Stand.  I believe in the utility you have the ability to keep the Active X reference open throughout the steps so it might improve your processing time when switching between inspections.  I hope this helps.  Thanks and have a great day.
