  1. My bad, it's possible to have it running for an RT target. Here is the answer from Virinco : 2 main options : Create reports on the RT system or host machine in WSXF, WSTF or WSJF format. Install the WATS Client on a host machine running windows and place the file in one of the folders to transfer (WATS Client installes these converters by default) Submit the file to using rest API https://virinco.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360014879119-Post-WSJF
  2. I personally dislike the attached infographic. It seems to send a bad message, like "NI portfolio is not well suited for production".
  3. As far as I know the WATS client is Windows only. So you would have to install the WATS client on the host side and use the WATS LabVIEW Addon.
  4. Nope. All these configuration modules are available through the WATS web application. Here an example for software distribution : https://virinco.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/210511203-Getting-started-with-Software-Distribution I have to precise that I'm currently not using these modules but plan to, and that I'm a TestStand user. Maybe we should create another post to talk about WATS. My point here is that I don't trust System Link and I trust less and less NI.
  5. I have to disagree. Yes WATS is a data analytics tool. But it is also a configuration tool with modules like software, firmware, serial and MAC distribution, and asset management.
  6. MOD EDIT: Topic split from here. Well 2 years ago I saw a demo of System Link by a Ni salesman and that was a huge buggy disaster, absolutely giant failure. I convinced my company to use WATS of Virinco instead : best choice ever.
  7. From here : Immediate, Compelling And Certain Value For NI Shareholders (webflow.com) ...sounds bad for us guys
  8. Anybody knows about this AspenTech software ? : Immediate, Compelling And Certain Value For NI Shareholders (webflow.com)
  9. Here we go for the dedicated website : maximizingvalueatni.com
  10. Hi, You can see this as a very simple solution: http://www.notatamelion.com/2015/05/25/using-vi-server-to-interact-with-executables/
  11. Hi all, It's been a while ! I'm finally available to think serioulsly about this wonderfull subject. Thanks to you here is where I am : I have to do SQL queries based on the current UUT for :UUT characteristics Test plan (which sequences to run) Sequences parameters Steps limits I can make this queries in different ways :with property loaders with SQL step types available in TestStand with LabVIEW and database connectivity toolkit I can make these queries in different locations :somewhere in a customized process model in the PreUUT callback in a main test sequence in each test sub-sequence I can store the results of these queries in different locations :in the UUT.AditionnalData structure (local variable) of the process model in station globals in locales variables I can split the sequences in this way :having a top level sequence with sub sequences that define the high level tests use pre-conditions on tests & sub sequences to decide whether or not it should run I'm questionning about :insert some Object Oriented layer somewhere, since it's possible to easilly do dynamic dispatch in TS using xml and xpath queries (I heard a little about that) Well, what would be your choices between these points ?
  12. Hi all, My concern is about object based framework. I'd like to talk about a "sensitive" subject, which divides people around me. I'm sure there are a plenty of objects aficionados here. A few years ago, LabVIEW give us the first object based template : the Actor Framework, which is certainly powerfull ...but just UNREADABLE !!!! When I conduct Core3 training, I'm tempted to show what could be an object based framework in LabVIEW, then I remember how the actor framework looks, then I decide to make my trainies continue to use LabVIEW, and finally I don't show the actor framework. When will NI provide a SIMPLE object based framework in the TEMPLATES ? Something like the command patern exposed here by Elijal Kerry : https://ekerry.wordpress.com/2012/01/16/oriented-design-patterns-for-labview-that-can-make-your-life-easier/ or in a the test executive example of the PTP sequencer : http://www.ptpartners.co.uk/ptp-sequencer/ I still use the "old" QSM (please Daklu, don't bite me), for sure it is not an ideal solution... I love objects, I used them a lot in my code, but not currently for my high level code. Any links or suggestions ? Thanks, Sebastien CLA
  13. jcarmody, Where do you store the information about "which sequence steps to execute and the limits for each test" ? File or database ? Where is implemented the logical which decide which sequence steps to execute ? Did you modify the process model ? Did you customize and use the AditionnalData structure available in the UUT structure ? Is dTRACK able to manage inputs in some way ? Thanks,
  14. I will take a look to TS2 (as I'm a LV teacher, I also got all the stuff for TestStand... such a bad boy...) and process model customisation. ShaunR, sorry for bothering you, maybe my question was too much "architectural" ... hum, you really are a nasty demon Just kidding, thank you both for your help and advices.
  15. Hi, Thanks for your answers. To jcarmody : I took a look to dTrak. I understand (but maybe I'm wrong) that it's a tool for managing Results, not for managing Inputs, just like skywats (http://www.skywats.com/). My concern is about inputs. (yes I'm a CLA ) To JKSH : Yes, you're right about the property loader, but my questions is much more larger than that. Especially, my main problem is to find a way to code the less possible number of sequences, by finding a smart trick, possibly like the ones I listed above. Regards, Sébastien
