custom substeps documentation

[Langermann]

Hello,

is there an further documentation about Custom Substeps as in the NI TestStand Reference Manual Chapter 13.

Is the custom substep "OnNewStep" a predefined event and are there more predefined events? Is it possible, to define customer events?

Regards

Matthias

Matthias,

"OnNewStep" is the only custom substep type which will be called automatically. When creating a new step of this type, TestStand calls, if available, this substep.

There are no other predefined names for custom substeps which are called by TestStand itself.

So all other custom substeps have to be called by the API explicitly. You can use the "ExecuteSubstep" method from the step-object to call any custom substep during execution (or edit time if running in an user interface).

hope this helps,

Norbert
