TestStand Process Model

[VaibhavKanchan]

Hi all,

This is my first post on NI Discussion forum,and I hope you people help me come out this problem.

Firstly It will be better to tell you about my experience in LabVIEW and TestStand so that you can understand my frame of mind.

I have around 18 months of development experience that states that I am good in LabVIEW .In TestStand I have completed Course manual 1 & 2 thorouhly .

But I am still confused about how to fullfill our requirements.

My system requirement are as follows-

We need to perform Series of test say Test1 ,Test2 ,Test3, .......

Each test are responisble to communicate with diiferent Instruments.

The Difference among the tests are only that tests has only some  parts which are different from other.

e.g

lets Test1 has following flow..

Test1:    Instrumrnt A

              Instrument B

              Instrument C

              Instrument D

              Instrument FR

              Instrument RG

Test2:     Instrumrnt A

              Instrument B

              Instrument C

              Instrument D

              Instrument FR

              Instrument RG

Test3:     Instrumrnt A

              Instrument B

              Instrument C

              Instrument D

              Instrument FR

              Instrument RG

Only different colors interactions are different

What I decided that I will make the call back of all the sequences and keep them into the process model and code which will be differ will only be use as a override callback in

a testspecific client sequence file.

Now the problem is that we can override the callback of processmodell in clients sequence file(Say Test1)only if procees model knows that there is a client sequnce file ,which is intended to override its own callback  .

Normally when we run the sequence than process model detects that there are modified callbacks in the client sequence file so when execution pointer reaches callback sequnce in Process model

it executes the sequence of client sequncefile version.

So please tell me the way how can differnt testFile continuously run using single teststand model.
