Adding SequenceCallModule to Steps

[AlexKB]

I am new to TestStand and I am trying to programmatically a SequenceCall into a step in C#. I am able to create new steps with:

Step step = engine.NewStep("Sequence Adapter", "SequenceCall");

And add them with:

seq.InsertStep(step, 0, StepGroups.StepGroup_Main);

I have a SequenceCallModule that I loaded my path into.

SequenceCallModule SMod = (SequenceCallModule)step.Module;

SMod.SequenceFilePath = path;

How do I associate this module with my step so when I insert my step the sequence call will be in my main sequence?

Let me know if you need any further information or clarification about my question. I am new to TestStand.

You should check out the shipping example on this topic:

Hope this helps!

This was taken from an NI Week presentation:

Create SeqCallStep:
▪RunState.SequenceFile.GetSequenceByName("MainSequence").InsertStep(RunState.Engine.NewStep("","SequenceCall"),Locals.loopindex,StepGroup_Main)

Note: locals.loopindex is a variable added so they could loop on adding a lot of steps.  It looks like you're almost there, you just need to add something like SequenceFile.GetSequenceByName("MainSequence")

so that it will go in the right place.

Thank you.

SequenceFile.GetSequenceByName("MainSequence")

Fixed it.
