Switching Workflow

Use the following workflow as a guide for implementing switching in a TestStand Sequence.

The steps used can be accessed at Measurement Configuration » Measurement Control » Switch Executive.

ProcessSetup Sequence


1378

  1. Call the Create Pin Sessions step.
  2. Call the NISE - Open Sessions step.

MainSequence Sequence


1378

Use an ECU Multi Test or ECU Action step with its module adapter configured as Sequence as the top-level step. Subsequent steps will be called as part of a SequenceCall step within the ECU Multi Test or ECU Action step.

Called Sequence

The PinImpedanceTest_Core sequence serves as the sequence called by the top-level ECU Multi Test or ECU Action step.

  1. Call the Apply Pin Configuration step.
  2. For each pin, call the NISE - Pin to Sessions step to get the site-based route/route group names and virtual device sessions for the switched pin and the switched instrument type.
  3. For each site:
    1. Call the NISE - Connect step to build the connection between the switched pin and the switched instrument channel on the current site.
    2. Call the appropriate Measurement Control group step types for the instrument you're using to read and publish measurements to the top-level ECU Multi Test SequenceCall step.
    3. Call the NISE - Disconnect step to disconnect the switched pin and the switched instrument channel on the current site.

ProcessCleanup Sequence

  1. Call the Close Pin Sessions step.
  2. Call the NISE - Close Sessions step.
