getting string from Labview via TestStand

[JTR]

First time here and first time post.  Q? I have a LabVIEW vi program that has an 'Error
Handler' which spits up a error message (text string) on an 'Indicator' on
the UI.  My question is, 1) How do I get that text string through
TestStand?
2) Take that text string and have it included in the TestStand Report.

I appreciate all.

In your Labview vi Front Panel, right click on the icon in the upper right corner and select "show connector". You can assign the various boxes of the Connector Pane to the Controls on the front panel. You can then call the VI from Teststand using the Action type Step.

To put the string into the report, use a statement like: RunState.Step.Result.ReportText= Parameters.Error_String

I can send you a sample seq and vi if you'd like.
