Custom VeriStand Steps for TestStand Feedback

Re: Custom VeriStand Steps for TestStand Feedback

‎04-10-2014 11:30 AM

Kevin,

It works now.  The Get Sequence Name step was adding a ":1" to the end of my file name.  However, now it still won't actually run the RT sequence.  It just jumps into the while loop and loops forever until I terminate it.

Hmm,

If you open up the workspace while it is running can you tell if the sequence being applied? I just wonder if the problem is in running the sequence or in reading the state.

Kevin,

It does not run on the workspace.  When I run the RT sequence from the stimulus profile editor in VS it works just fine, but when I try and call that same RT sequence through TS it doesn't actually run the sequence.

Kevin,

I fixed the problem.  I found out that in order for the sequence to run, when you set up the parameters in the Open and Deploy step, you have to set up the parameters as Paths, and the value as their path in the VS project.

Using 2013 & the v300 Add-on.  I get an exception when selecting my sysdef in the dialog for the 'set model parameter value' custom step type.

Re: Custom VeriStand Steps for TestStand Feedback

Hmm, Did you drop and configure the initialize veristand step first?

Is it with any system definition or just a specific one - I just tried with a test one and that step seems to work OK.

Re: Custom VeriStand Steps for TestStand Feedback

‎04-22-2014 09:31 AM

I read this in the documentation:

To change model parameter or model execution state first execute the Open Model Manager Step

-Model parameters can be updated individually using the Set Model Parameter Value Step or from file using the Update Model Parameters from file step

-Models can be stopped and started using the Set Model Execution State Step

I don't see the 'open model manager step' or the 'set model excecution state step'
