Why Is the Optional Parameter "Input Buffer" Grayed Out for the Multiple Numeric Limit Test?Primary Software: TestStandPrimary Software Version: 2.0.1 Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A Secondary Software:
Problem: When I use the Numeric Limit Test with the LabVIEW adapter, the Edit LabVIEW VI Call dialog box gives me the option to pass an Input Buffer. However, this option is grayed out when I use the Multiple Numeric Limit Test step type. Why is this happening and how can I pass data to my code module? Solution: This option is grayed out because the Multiple Numeric Limit Test step type does not have a property called InBuf. Some step types (i.e. Pass/Fail Test, Numeric Limit Test, String Value Test) have this property only for compatibility purposes with the Test Executive Toolkit, the predecessor of TestStand. The Multiple Numeric Limit Test step type didn't exist in the Test Executive Toolkit and therefore, this step type was designed without the InBuf property. TestStand provides an easy and flexible method to pass data between TestStand and your code modules by using the TestStand API. For more information about this method, you can refer to the manuals linked below. There are also shipping examples located at the <TestStand>\Examples\AccessingPropertiesAndVariables directory.
