range check of LabVIEW controls

[mrbean]

In LabVIEW, one can specify that a control have a valid range of entries (i.e. min/max/increment).  If you run this VI from LabVIEW, everything works great.  However, when that VI is invoked from TestStand, values outside the range are allowed to be passed in.  Is there a good/easy way to apply the same constraints on the TestStand side, or do we have to perform range checking on all user-supplied inputs?

By 'user supplied inputs' do you mean a message popup in Teststand occurs where a user inputs a value? Or do you mean somebody actually manually entering the input value right in the sequence file settings?

[mrbean]

When you're creating your sequence file (in the seq editor), you list your step name, step type, etc, then you specify module and point to the VI you want this step to call.  At that point in the seq editor, you specify any parameter defaults you'd like to over write. 

[Grayham]

As far as I know you cannot limit the range of input values entered at that point.

You'll probably have to create come kind of preconditioning sub VI that verifies input.
