How to Modify Process Model to select and call a test sequence

[ziyasen]

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to customize "batchmodel" process model in order to read an "ID" from ourt test interface adapter (ITA) and call a specific test sequence which is written for that ITA.

But  the problem is;  if you want to call a process model, you should open at least one SEQ file and run "Single pass" or "test UUTs". But in my scenerio OPERATOR do not know which SEQ, he/she should open. I am trying to automatize this SEQ file selection procedure.Which means Operator will open the testexec prt test stand sequence editor and press "single pass" button without openening any sequence.

Is it possible to handle above scenerio?

Note:

As an alternative solution I am thinking to create a "dummy sequence file" which does not have any test code in it, and make this dummy seq file as defult sequence file, that every operator will open this and start single pass test. This can be a  solution but I don like the idea of creating dummy sequence, etc. It does not seem best practice to me.

Hi ziyasen,

Have you looked into implementing a Front End or Station callback for your required action? These callbacks would not be dependent on the process model being used or the sequence file that is loaded.

Hi Sarahmo,

Thank you for your reply. After I post this question I luckily found an example sequence in TS 2019 examples folder which show me a method to solve my problem.
