Writing to TestStand Station Globals

Hi,

 

I've posted this in the LV board, but realise it may be better suited to the TestStand one...

 

I want to write to a TestStand Station Global from within LabVIEW.  I can read from Stations Globals using the method given here: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-11447 but can't work out how to write to them.

 

Is it possible? If so, how?

 

Any help gratefully received,

 

Dan

I've only used TestStand a handful of times, but can't you modify that example to use SetValString property (or any of the other SetVal properties) instead of the GetValString?  Just a guess.

Yes, I'm in the process of trying that, but haven't had much luck...

There should be a TestStand palette in your LabVIEW.  In there is a TestStand - Set Property Value.vi.  There is also a TestStand - Get Property Value.vi.  Those will make your life a lot easier.

I've had some luck - in so far as I can get LabVIEW to update a Station Global in TestStand.

 

What I'd really like to be able to do is update it on multiple occasions from within a single VI - see my attached example.

 

Is this possible?
