I am developing a custom UI based on the standard Test Stand examples. My custom UI would be used by manufacturing production-line operators to run TestStand sequences as production tests.
My custom UI is based on the "Basic User Interface" C# example. You can see the snapshot below which is exactly the sample with a few additional fields that the operator would enter.
The Part Number I want to map to the standard UUT PartNumber.
The other fields we want to update to some StationGlobals that we have defined ourselves.
I searched through the sample code and do not see examples of either of these tasks.

The *magic* word is "Custom UI Message. There are plenty of examples available including a chapter in the TS 2 class from NI.
The biggest question is "who is sending the custom UIMessage?". In your case, it sounds like adopting the process model makes most sense.
