TestStand, DIO and MAX

[TonyJ]

I can go to Measurement and Automation Explorer and select my NI USB-6501 Test Panel, select the correct port and line depress the Start button and my relay closes.  See attached example.  Is there a way in TestStand to close the same relay without relying on a custom step type?  Can you point me to where I could execute this operation in TestStand.  Thanks.

Hey Tony,

You could use an IVI step to perform your switching.
