Because the plug-in class provides built-in error handling, it is important that developers wire their error wires to the provided error out terminals. For example, IVI class driver VIs publish errors on their error wires when the VIs are initialized incorrectly. Wiring the error terminals from the driver VIs to the error out terminal ensures errors appear in FlexLogger as shown in the following figure.

Figure 1. FlexLogger Error Messages


In FlexLogger, three distinct error notifications appear.

  • Detailed errors in the Errors and Warnings pane
  • An error icon on the plug-in header
  • The Error indicator next to the Stop Test button
