How to set user privileges in TS2022 correctly?

[Norick17]

I am using TS2022 Q4. When setting the administrator privileges -> GrandAll -> True (see 1.)

I would assume I can change any Locals and FileGlobals variables when running the example UI with "TestStand 2022 (64-bit) C# UI - Editor.lnk"

from "C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\TestStand 2022 (64-bit)\UserInterfaces\Full-Featured\CSharp" when logged in as Administrator (see 2.).

Now when I try to change any variable it it greyed out and it can not be changed. When setting a breakpoint a running the sequence, it is possible to change any vaiable.

When running the UI with "TestStand 2022 (64-bit) C# UI - Operator.lnk" I can change it without problem.

Does anyone know what is the problem here?

Thanks!

Hi Norick17, 

When you are using TestStand Sequence Editor and you logged on as Administrator or with an user with Administrator rights, then:
It is not possible to insert additional steps into a sequence during the Execution of that sequence or of any other sequence in the same SequenceFile which is run.
