Teststand 4.1 and LabVIEW 8.6 taking more time to launch?

[Vijaym]

For lauching the LabVIEW 8.6 steps in TestStand 4.1 its taking almost 7 to 10 seconds to load or refresh the LabVIEW terminals. Everytime while clicking on the LabVIEW steps its taking the same time..... Its a kind of irritating to write code in TestStand. I dont know what happening inside.. but in TS 4.0 its pretty fast. Even I tried with using runtime engine option.... very little bit of changes I found... in this case I cant able to edit the LabVIEW code.

Is there any method to make it faster to repond. Or its because of LV 8.6 the way it loads.?

There is a known issue with LabVIEW 8.6 and any version of TestStand that will cause a significant delay updating the display after selecting a LabVIEW step in the sequence editor.  The issue is described in KnowledgeBase 4PH891T3: Known Compatibility Issues with TestStand and LabVIEW 8.6, and a patch is available.

Please try to install the patch for LabVIEW 8.6f1 and see if it fixes the behavior you are experiencing.  If it does not, please let me know and we will agressively investigate the issue.  It would be helpful if you could provide examples or instructions to reproduce the problem.

Thanks!
