If a <Test> element contains one or more <TestResult> child elements, the ATML TD translator inserts an indicator in the VI for each <TestResult> element.

If the <DatumDescription> and <IndexedArrayDescription> child elements of a <TestResult> element contain <NominalValue> or <NominalElementValue> child elements, respectively, the translator specifies the default value for the indicator.

The default value for the indicator is the value of the local variable the translator creates for the <TestResult> element in the sequence file so that the indicator returns the default value the translator specifies when you run the VI. However, if you wire or modify the indicator with any other value in the VI, the indicator returns the value you wire or modify.

Incremental Update

If in the source TD instance document you add or modify any of the following elements and you incrementally update the sequence file, the translator adds or modifies the default value for the indicator that corresponds to the parent <TestResult> element:

• <NominalValue>
• <NominalElementValue> child element of the <DatumDescription>
• <IndexedArrayDescription>

If in the source TD instance document you delete any of the elements listed above and you incrementally update the sequence file, the translator does not modify the default value for the indicator that corresponds to the parent <TestResult> element.
