Thread Operation

Use the Thread operation to wait for a TestStand thread to finish executing.

The Thread operation contains the following options:

• Specify by Sequence Call —The thread to wait for by selecting a sequence call within the same sequence as the Wait step. You can only specify sequence calls that run in a new thread.
• Specify by Object Reference to the Thread —The thread to wait for by using an ActiveX reference to the thread. When you specify the thread with a reference variable, you can refer to threads other sequences and executions create.
• Timeout Enabled, Timeout Expression, Timeout Causes Run-Time Error —The timeout behavior when waiting for the thread to finish executing. If a timeout occurs, the Step.Result.TimeoutOccurred property is set to True .
