How do I reset instruments like ResMan in my Operato Interface

[hurst]

I have a requirement to be able to reset all of my instruments from within my LabWindows Operator Interface each time a user logs in.

I know where to put the code, I just need to know what to put there. I've had NiSpy active while ResMan is running, but I don't see any activity.

Can anyone help?

Hi hurst,

If you want to actually reset all of the devices, you could call the AssertSysReset function, which asserts the SysReset line. This may work, depending on your devices. The VXI spec does not require that devices recognize this line, but some do. The only way to ensure that the devices are reset is to reboot the whole chassis, in which case you will have to run Resman again.

Hope this helps!

Hi,

Probably, the place to do it would be the FrontEndCallback.seq, in the LoginLogout sequence after the Login step.

You will have to change the Post Action on the Login step, otherwise you new step(s) will not get executed.
