Custom VeriStand Steps for TestStand Feedback

[Kevin_F]

Hey Davide,

For question 1 - values on the VeriStand workspace are usually linked to channels in the system definition.  You can set the value of these channels using the Set Channel Value Step.

Can you post the sequence you are using to get to the error 17300 you posted?

Hey Davide,

If you send these to me or post them here I can take a look at what is going on.

Hi Kevin,

I am using Veristand 2012, Teststand 2012 and LabVIEW 2012. I have got the same error Vaccaro. Then I realize that i need to start Veristand 2012, not Veristand 2011 as also installed to my maschine.

How to modify step "Start Veristand" to call Veristand 2012?

Thank for your help!

Regards,

Rajamodol

Hey Rajamodol,

To modify the steps for 2012 other than start Veristand you just need to change which version of the assembly they are calling. For start VeriStand its a little trickier since the assembly call we used to make that step in 2011 doesn't exist in 2012 anymore.

I am currently working on a 2.0 release of the steps which will support VeriStand 2012 as well as add a couple of new features.

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for your quick reply.

I was looking in Veristand .NET API just to change "NationalInstruments.Veristand.VeristandSteps(1.0.0.1)" to version 2012. I didn't find any..:(

I modified then the other steps like Open Project, Deploy Project, and OpenWorksspace to NationalInstruments.Veristand.ClientAPI(2012.0.0) without modifying any other variable.

I run first Veristand 2012 manually, and then run my sequences. Then i received this error.

If you don't mind, are there any variable i shall modify?

Regards,

Rajamodol

Hey Rajamodol,

The issue you are running into there is that the post steps which handle the VeriStand errors are also set up for 2011, they need to be updated to point to the 2012 API.

Hi Kevin,

is there a plan when the steps will be updated to VS 2012?

[Kevin_F]

Hey Andreas,

The new version should be out in the next month or so.  I am making some major modifications and feature improvements at the same time as updating to VS 2012.

Hey Kevin, I just tried to install the steps on a Win7 64-bit and it doesn't work. I mean the installer exits without an error, but in TS all steps are on the top level and there is no NI VeriStand folder that contains the steps. I didn't test any further, but I think this is a path issue.
