TestStand looks for network path when not connected

Hi, I have two test systems that run the same sequences in TestStand 4.2.1.  One test system is a stand alone system and sets voltages within that system and the other is connected to a network and uses a network path to set voltages.  We use the same sequences on both test systems with an IF-THEN-ELSE statement.  IF you're on the local tester THEN set the voltage locally ELSE set the voltage over a network path.  Some local test systems are reporting an error when the sequence is launched that says it can't find the network path (even though it doesn't use it...)  Is there a global configuration somewhere that says don't check for network paths until they are called?

 

Thanks-

Try setting the Load Option for the network steps to Load Dynamically.

Thank you for the reply, if we change the Load Options to 'Load Dynamically' then it works as expected.  My question is now, I checked another sequence that is set the same way and I thought should have the same issue and there were exceptions by the load and unload options as shown in the attachment.  What sequence file Load Options is the exception referring to that overrides these settings?  (TestStand 4.2.1)

 

Thanks

Go to the Edit menu and select Sequence File Properties near the bottom. On the General tab, there is the sequence file level configuration for load and unload options.
