How can I handle deploying multiple test systems on the same PC that have been developed using different versions of LabVIEW, TestStand, and/or Switch Executive?

The major issue here is that the test systems must be documented and validated before being released to the production floor. Given this if a test station has multiple test systems deployed on it that have been developed on various versions of LV, TS, and Switch exec how can I force the test system selected to use the correct versions of TS, LV, and Switch exec.? I understand that the solution would be to recomplie everything and bring them up to the latest version but that would then require re-validation according to the QA department. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
It would be nice if theTS deployment was more like an LV executable... meaning when a LV executable is launched it always knows what LV runtime engine to use when there are multiple engines installed on a PC.

Hi,
Multiply versions of teststand can reside on the same system, but only one version can run at a time. They is a utility that has to be run to set the active version.
The SequenceFiles have a version number, and you will find an error will be generate if you try to Load the sequencefile in the wrong version of TestStand.
The labview VIs will only work providing the correct version of the RTE is also installed on your system, even a labview executabe requires the correct RTE to be installed, either as part of the executable installation or as a seperate installation, before the labview exe will work correctly.
I'm not fimilar with the Switch exec but I would expect that it will also require the correct lower level device drivers to be available for the version you are using.
Therefore, as you are indicating that some of your system are at  a older version, its difficult to image how you could achive this, considering if you say you have different versions of the software(s). For a start, you may have the problem that newer code/ sequencefiles using additional functionatily not available in the older versions.
I would think your only solution would  be to have different deployments covering the different versions you have, or at least bring all your test systems up to the same version of teststand.

    That is the way Mac OS X 10.8 (aka Mountain Lion) works by default. Are you actually running that system? (See About This Mac in the Apple menu.) If so, make sure the check box in the shut down alert is checked:

  • How can I install my husbands iPod/library on the same computer that I have my iPod/library on? Can someone send me the step by step instructions? I was a windows computer. Thanks!

    So we just got a new computer and I was able to successfully add my iPod/library to it. However when I tried to add my husbands iPod/library to the computer his library didn't show up. He is ony able to charge his iPod but cannot see his library. I tried adding another account/admin to my computer and download itunes with his ipod that way but it said there was another library and it couldn't access his library song list. His ipod is showing up on the left side however when I click on it there is nothing displaying. So my question to you or what I am trying to figure out is how can I get his ipod to show up with his library if he plugs in his ipod? Do I need to create a new account and if so how do I do it? I have a windows computer. Can someone give me step by step instructions on how to do this? He is going crazy not being able to access anything.
    Thanks!

  • How can we handle browser settings while dealing with the security ?

    Hi ,
    how can we handle browser settings while dealing with the security ?When we configured security in web.xml , during the first request the container is asking for the authentication credentials once they are provided it go's on. but when the user gives a fresh request from the second window within the same browser that time it is not asking for authentication. How can we overcome this.Is there anything to do with server configurations?
    How can we make the container no to keep the things or act like session?

    Ya... I am taking a small example need not happen always but a kind of possibility i am thinking off.
    once the user sign out and just left without closing the browser and a friend (suppose not a good friend ... just kidding...) of that user may open the same jsp or file .This time the security is breached. If that feature or property exists....
    I know what you might say ... the user will log-out before leaving where a programer might invalidate the session at the time of log out.
    Consider the case of a bad Programing or just a programer might forget to invalidate,At that time as a application administrator how can he solve that issue.
    Thanks.......

  • How do i set up multiple iCloud accounts on the same mac?

    how do i set up multiple iCloud accounts on the same mac?

    Interesting - I was sure I'd seen a note somewhere that it was only Mail, but this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4020
    does say
    Your secondary iCloud accounts can be set up and viewed in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars on your iOS device, or Apple () menu > System Preferences > Mail, Contacts, Calendars on OS X Lion. You may choose to do this if you have a second iCloud account and need to access its Mail, Contacts, or Calendar data. 
    Note: While you can configure multiple iCloud Mail accounts in iOS, Push mail will only work for the primary iCloud account in iOS. Secondary account(s) will check for mail based on the settings in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data.
    It's not something I can test - I suppose the second account's data gets added to the lists in iCal and Address Book?

  • How can I get "IMAQ Line Fit" stable (with the same points)

    How can I get "IMAQ Line Fit" stable (with the same points)
    I my vision applications I use a lot off times "IMAQ Line Fit"
    some times the results are not Stable.
    See vi and word document attached.
    When I take the same points but in a other order (sort)
    then suddenly all points are used.
    In this case I was looking for a edge in vertical direction (Y).
    I found the points but "IMAQ Line Fit" did not function well.
    I tried changing all settings like pixel radius and minimum score and
    also threshold and so on. But no result.
    Then I sorted the points reversed and that worked. See vi.
    I use labview Labview 8.6.0 and IMAQ machine vision.
    Maybe this problem is solved in a newer version.
    Please let me know.
    Thanks

    Thank You for your reaction Hossein,
    This "one application" uses "Line fit" about 20 000 000 times a day.
    about 200 will go wrong. With your setting the the "Line fit" for this occasion will work but others will go wrong.
    A algorithm should be:
    1e Stable, when using the same points and settings the result MUST be the same. How the points are sorted should not matter.
    2e Accuracy
    3e Speed
    4e Testing. Is very difficult but al least close points and the same points and sorting ... should be done
    NI now as made a " IMAQ Line Fit" Problem CAR (Corrective Action request) 298016.
    so in the future there will be a update.
    In the mean while a made a line fit which uses Bisquare option from Linear Fit.vi :
      from C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\analysis\6fits.llb
    This is a temporary fix because "IMAQ Fit Line VI" is not so stable.
    Because outliers should be rejected only Bisquare does this reasonable.
    This program does NOT USE "Minimum Score" and "Pixel Radius"
    Valid fit = When there are enough points within Outlier_Distance.
    Algorithm steps:
    - Determine if line is more horizontal then vertical, Compare DeltaX with DeltaY
    - If DeltaX <= DeltaY then SWAP X Y and later Swap back
    - Sort Points at on X value
    - First : Bisquare Linear Fit
    - Calculate distances to the found line for all points
    - Inliers: Points within Outlier_distance
    - Outliers: Points outside Outlier_Distance
    - Only use Inlier Points
    - Check again if DeltaX < DeltaY then SWAP X Y later SWAP back again
    - Second : Bisquare Linear Fit only with the Inlier Points
    - Results are from the second fit
    Warning : This Program is Not so accurate and Not so fast
    See attachments it is in labview 8.6
    If some has a improvement please let me know.
    Thanks
