Hi
I am using Test Stand in Parallel mode for testing 2 UUT's. We use Simple Operator interface to run teststand sequence.
Requirement is to get the report of indivdual Test Socket 0( UUT 1) and Test Socket 1 ( UUT2) in in report viewer window of Simple OI.
Can someone please suggest what changes in Simple OI code are needed to achieve this.

Hi Vikki,
What language are you using for the Simple Operator Interface (LabVIEW, CVI, etc.)? In addition, is your goal to generate two separate reports and display them in two separate report viewers or to have both UUTs appear in the same report inside the Simple OI?

Hi Milan
We are using Labview for Simple OI. We do all work in labview.
We intend to do parallel testing of two UUT's ( Electronic sub-assembly) in one test fixture. So far I have been able to
achieve the test within the Teststand parallel mode where I can see test running in parallel for two sockets.
Currently we have been doing sequential testing and we use Simple OI to run Teststand sequence. So task is to customize
Simple OI to use it for parallel test of two UUT's where I should be able to perform following
1. Separate Start \ Resume \ Terminate buttons for each UUT
2. Able to see separate report view ( for each testsocket 0 & testsocket 1 and Progress bar indivdually)
From the forum I could get some information & started with adding Execution View Manager for 2nd UUT and also added controls ( report viewer & break\resume buttons). Also did few changes in DisplayExecution EventCallBack vi.
Facing following issues with SImple OI after making above changes.
1. After starting test on one UUT ( Testsocket 0 or 1) from Simple OI using Resume\Break button , Unable to start 2nd testsocket UUT test while first test testsocket is running, Simple OI accepts 2nd UUT Break\Resume button only at end of completion of first one.
2. Unable to separate the "Report View " for Testsocket 0 & Testsocket 1; Requirement is to view each testsockets report individually.
Now I see both UUT test report on both test sockets.
Attaching the block dia of Simple OI with above changes done.

So you are not using the default parallel model? This uses the modelsupport2.dll that has separate buttons for start/stop and the abilty to view individual reports.

Hi
We are using Teststand 2010 & Labview 2011. Dll file "modelsupport2.dll " is available in Models\Teststand models. Can you please suggest
what I need to do to be able to use this dll ?
thanks

As I said, it is used by default when you select the parallel model. Have you actually run anything yet with the model? What pops up is a screen that has entries for each socket. You would have to modify the model to eliminate the calls into it. The code is written with CVI.

I have selected "Parallel model " with in the Teststand sequence editor & selected 2 test sockets. Running sequence from Teststand sequence editor
is fine and I can see reports for each test socket. When trying to run same sequence from Simple OI with changes done for additional ExecutionView
Manager & changes for DisplayExecution event control not able to get desired results.

Hi Dennis
I did changes to Simple OI and added ExecutionView Manager & controls.
Attaching the code & also a example sequence which I am using to test Simple OI. I would appreciate if you can look into this and suggest
some solution. I have two report view enabled , how is it possible to configure TestSocket 0 & TestSocket 1 data to indivdual report viewer window.
Also when I start test one one socket , unable to resume other socket as screen gets locked and terminate buttons also do not work while
sequence is running. At the end of test cycle of one I am able to start test on other UUT.
Test sequence example file is "Sequence File_ptry_1.seq" ; Simple OI ( modified ) is in Folder Operator Interface_C1.zip and "Simple OI-test - Top-Level VI.vi" is the top level VI to run OI.
thanks
