Remote control teststand from Labview user interface

[Erik Swenson]

Hi!
I am planning for a project with 2 separate computers with the teststand engine installed on each of them. Each of the two engine computers will run the same test sequence but with separate UUT's.
I want to control/run the two teststand engines from a third computer with a common labview operator interface.
Is this possible?
Can anyone give me some hints of how to set up this configuration

The fastest way to implement this solution is to run a sequence on your 3rd computer that in turn launches a remote subsequences on the other 2 computers. This controlling sequence can then be executed by the standard LV OI on your 3rd computer. This makes use the built in TestStand capability of the Sequence Call step that allows you to execute a sequence on a remote machine. Remote execution is disucussed in the User Manual and in variours web documents on our site.

There are more involved solutions that require more programming. Each approach has advantages and disadvantages that will determine whether they are appropriate for your application.
