How to reload prototype and keep parameters?

[OnlyOne]

Hello,

i changed from Labview 7.11 to the newest labview 2012.

Now i have some express-vi-teststeps in Teststand 2012.

In the testplan it says that i have to update the prototypes because they were configured with labview 7.1.1 and are not compatible to lv2012.

When i click on the blue arrow then the prototype is reloaded, the labview-icon is shown and the teststeps runs again.

The problem is that after the reload all the custom values for the input-variables of the VI are lost and the default is shown (configured settings from express-vi).

I also changed the prototype in the types.ini but this seems to be only valid for new-inserted-teststeps.

So what i need is something like a "reload all prototypes with keeping the parameter-values".

How can i do this?

Thanks for help

Please use update vi tool

Open your test sequence...

Go to Tools - Update vi calls ( this needs LV dev on your system)

In the process express vi call - option - select reload prototype if modified

This should solve the issue.

Hello, 

how do you permanently stop this from re-occuring? 

I have the same situation repeated time and have done and tried all the options and this keeps coming again even though no changes were made to the VIs and its slows my development time really down. 

Thanks

This clears out my errors regarding modules but I was was wondering if anyone found a way to update a list of subsequence/test sequences prototype in the open sequence file? Thanks
