Hi there. I see a very common issue within station globals where the device names will arbitrarily come up blank. I attached the photo of an example. It seems to always affect our eLoads. In the pic you will see NHR_ELoad with a device name of "DC Load 1". This is how we normally have it configured. We haven't pinpointed a cause yet, but something happens where the device name will all of a sudden come up blank or "". The odd thing to me, is that the device aliases in NI MAX do not have issue, only in test stand station globals and ONLY the electronic load. The only fix we have is to just rename the device, but I was hoping this may be a common issue with a preventive fix in mind?

StationGlobals are saved in a file which provides the actual persistence.
Thus when changing values in the StationGlobals, they have to be saved.
Possibly something went wrong there?
