open a sequence file from Operator interface directly

[Soumya_Mathew]

Hi,

I developed own operator interface with TestStand3.5 and LabView8.0.

I have to run this OI with the particular sequence file. So i have to open sequence file directly with out clicking on any button like "OPEN_SEQ_FILE".

i went through some approch like by using application manager's invoke node, I passed the sequence file path to the open sequence file property. i attached the part of bolck diagram with this mail. but am getting error that, "-17501 no one has provided details abt this".

Can you please tell me that, how can i do this?

Thanks,

Bannu.

Hi,

First thing, can you make sure you dont post images with large white borders as it makes it difficuilt to find the 'expland image to actual size' control so that it can be read.

A few of points, where is the actual sequence file located, if its relative to the operator interface application, then the path you are building up is probably ok. I think you might have to strip off another layer before adding the path of the sequence file, eg the exe name and the VI name to get the base path. If it not then check this path is what you expect.

Another point is 'Sequence File' is miss spelt. There's no problem with that so long as you have the same spelling for the actual folder.

What do you do with the OpenSequenceFile reference, as it appears not to be connected. you will need to link this up. Check with the TestStand supplied example operator interface.
