I modified the sequential process model in numerous areas for the task I'm on now. Most of the changes were made to allow customizations made to the TestStand HMI (several new indicators, a new login dialog, etc) to work smoothly within the structure
of TestStand. Another program wants to use the HMI I created (based on the sequential model) but apply it to a parallel process model. None of us have ever worked with the parallel process model, so I have (and will have more I'm sure) some questions.
Without having looked at the guts of any of the callbacks, entry points, etc (i.e. TestUUTs, SinglePass) can I assume that TestUUTs in PPM is the same as TestUUTs in the SPM, and that if an entry point or callback has a different name (i.e. Test UUTs -- Test Socket Entry Point) then it has different behavior. The second point is probably obvious, since the subsequence didn't exist in the SPM.
Other than the TS4.0 example sequence, I've never run with the PPM. Are there special considerations (with respect to the HMI) that I need to address to handle multiple UUTs. In the example it brings up four serial number entry dialogs and they impede the display. What are some recomendations for a nicer user interface that allows multiple UUTs to be tested in parallel.
