Transfer Step's related info to a table

Hi, Guys, I'm a newbie to TS but familiar with LabVIEW.

I'd like to transfer StepName, Description, limits, test value, test result (Pass/Fail/Done...) and test duration for every step. There must be some local variables to store them, could you show me how to do this?

 

I wonder if there are big trouble for parallel mode or a sequence calls a SubSequence.

 

Below are my consideration:

1, once finishing loading Seq, I can get all StepName, Description and limits, then display them in the table immediately;

2, while executing or finishing a step, update its relate info to the table, including test value, test result and test duration.

This sounds pretty much like you are programming a LabVIEW OI for your sequence/ framework.

 

I would suggest using User Messages to LabVIEW: http://www.ni.com/tutorial/4532/en/

 

Be aware of the fact, that some items will change even during execution of a single step, e.g. TestStatus

 

I have realized a similar application with user messages being sent by custom step types.
