Hello
The example dll code is presented here, what it is doing is measuring the Ascii value of the 6th byte and then passing on the value to the Test Stand. I think it is something stupid on my part that I am not able to extract the data out of the byte and then convert it to byte and then pass onto Test Stand.
The process should be
Tx 16 bytes ------> Rx 24 bytes --------> Obtain desired byte( 6th in this particular case)----------> Transfer its Ascii value to a double (testmeasurement)------->Pass on that value of double to Test Stand.
I dont know where I am breaking the chain or if the chain is even wrong or there is another process of doing it. I am attaching the screen capture module from the function I am using in Test Stand. I am always getting the result to be a 0, no matter what I do. I am attaching the source code being used in this test to pass on the value. I have tried the code to work independently in the attached atest.prj but it is not working when i try to run it in Test Stand.
