String Comparison Test Monitor

[Kenny_K]

Did I miss an example or API vi on how to save a string comparison result to the test monitor?

I see in the Labview examples that there is a add measurement (dbl), which is actually converting the double to a string.

should I just create a copy of that and use string inputs?

does systemlink use the min and measurement fields when saving the data?  Measurement and nominal?

Some more detail.

When adding a measurement, the structure seems to be the following:

{
"name":"",
"status":"",
"measurement":"",
"units":"",
"nominalValue":"",
"lowLimit":"",
"highLimit":"",
"comparisonType":""
}

When using the TestStand Model, I assume that you can also save the normal TestStand Step Types: 

All of the examples that I have seen match the numeric Limit Test.

Are there any examples to populate the Pass/Fail or String Value test?

Ok, I figured it out.   hopefully NI is monitoring the SystemLink forum and will see this, so they can add more examples.

I created a new VI "Add Test Measurement (string).vi", which has a all strings (instead of doubles) and a new comparison type def, since the string comparison types are different than the numeric limit types.
