pass cluster to an asynchronous vi

[dsteines]

I have an asynchronous vi that I need to pass a container to while it executes. I am able to pass individual members of the container to the VI by using TestStand's "Get Variable" subVI in LabView. However, this subVI does not support passing containers. Is it possible to pass a container to an asynchronous VI while it executes?

You could pass in a sequence context reference and look up the Local when the VI is ready to use it or you could pass in a reference directly to the Local and use the API to extract data.

To summarize:

You have to get the individual elements one at a time.
