The Read/Write Connection Settings step, described in detail in Read/Write Connection Settings Step, provides the ability to read from or write to saved VeriStand connection settings.

To update a subset of the Connection Settings, you must use two Read/Write Connection Settings Steps in conjunction—one to read the settings, and one to write the settings after the appropriate changes have been made. Refer to the following figure for an example. Note that the steps must be configured to read and write the connection settings from a non-default location, such as a local variable. This variable must be of the type NI_VsConnectionSettings.
