Have to confiugre my called exe in TestStand each time I load teststand

I have to re-cofigure my "call exe" each time I load testStand or else the exe will not function properly.  The exe is a script that programs an IC through a JTAG programmer.  It basically loads the boot code then the firmware.  The exe is loading from teststand OK, but when it runs it states it cannot find the boot code file to load it.  If I go into testStand and configure the exe then everything runs OK.  
Thanks

- Set the adapter selection drop list in the toolbar to C/C++ DLL
- Insert an Action step right before your Call Executable step
- Right click on the step and select Specify Module
- Enter kernel32.dll for the Module Pathname
- Enter SetCurrentDirectoryA for the FunctionName (yes, the A at the end is needed. The function comes in ANSI and Unicode variants)
-Click on Return Value in the Parameter list to select it. Now, in the Parameter Details list, change the Category from void to Boolean
- Click the New button to add another parameter. Change the Category to String. Leave the type as C String (const)
- Click in the value expression field for your new parameter. Enter a string constant with the absolute path of the folder that contains the file the executable needs to load.  Example:  "C:\\temp"   .  Note that backslashes need to be doubled inside string constants because backslash is the escape character.

  • Its a 5S,I couldnt automatically connect to an already paired bluetooth device the next time.Have to forget that device then re establish each time.Am i missing any setting that does it ?Also

    Its a 5S,I couldnt automatically connect to an already paired bluetooth device the next time.Have to forget that device then re establish each time.Am i missing any setting that does it ?Also if i turn on the bluetooth via settings and turn off it via control center,the settings page still reflects its on ,is that a bug in IOS ?

    What kind of Bluetooth device?
    When you turn it off in Control Center, are you looking at the Settings page? If so, you need to close control center for it to reflect the change. When you turn Bluetooth off in Control Center and look on the Status Bar, what do you see? Do you see the gray Bluetooth icon? If you have Settings closed and turn Bluetooth off on the Control Center and then open the Settings app, do you still see Bluetooth enabled?

  • HT204053 can I purchase from two different stores ie store in New Zealand and Store in Australia and  how do I sync updates on applications?  Do I have to switch ID's in my settings each time or is there an easier way.

    can I purchase from two different stores ie store in New Zealand and Store in Australia and  how do I sync updates on applications purchased from either store?  Do I have to switch ID's in my settings each time or is there an easier way.  The trouble is I set up my appleid in new Zealand and so all icloud and itunes and app stores are under New Zealand Apple ID I have since moved to Australia. Im a real beginner at this stuff so bare with me pse.

    I'm in the same boat as you -- except that I manage both a school lab (volunteer job) and macs in the enterprise (pay job).  What I think we need is the Education Volume Purchasing Program
    http://www.apple.com/education/volume-purchase-program/faq.html
    Unfortunately this all seems a little rough around the edges -- for example, I have found updates for AppStore apps on the support.apple.com updates download site, but then when I install them via ARD they don't actually update the software.  (The AppStore icons still show as needing the updates, and the version info reports the old version.)  The documentation is also vague about which AppleID to use in which circumstance.  I think they just haven't finished thinking through the implications of the various procedures and policies upon the various kinds of customers.  When we deployed Mountain Lion on the school lab, we made an install usb and went around and installed it on each computer -- and it appears that you are on the honor system as far as paying for all of the licenses that you install.  We did!  But they appear to have no way to enforce it.
    So far, I have only deployed 9 Lion macs in my day job, and our "solution" to the AppStore showing updates problem has been to drag the AppStore icon off of the users' docks so they don't see them!

  • Firefox disappears from my dock and I have to copy it to my Apps folder each time I start up, and I am then prompted to install the latest version, but notification will not go beyond contacting server.

    I have tried many of the suggested solutions from online communities, like uninstalling and reinstalling, but I still have the same problem - Firefox disappears from my dock, when I click on the 'question mark' in the dock to open it, I'm asked to copy to my Apps folder, which I have to do each time and replace old version. Then I'm prompted to install the latest version, but when I do this, it gets stuck on contacting server. Please help! I'm using Yosemite 10.10.

    Do you have the current version of list.it (version 0.4.8.9.1)? This page https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/12737/ indicates it is compatible with all Firefox 3.6.* versions.

  • Why do I have to use security code for wifi router each time I turn on iPad 3?

    Why do I have to enter wifi security code for my router each time I turn on ipad3?  I have checked all the settings I could but is this a router problem?

    If you're hiding your network SSID and/or using WEP security, I think these can cause this problem.  If you're hiding your SSID, there's really no point in doing that since there are ways people can easily see it if they're looking to do harm anyway.  If you're using WEP security, consider changing to WPA2 which is much more secure than WEP.

  • I am trying to have some LabVIEW code called in a New thread exit when the testStand sequence terminates

    I have a Sequence that launches a sequence in a New Thread that happens to launch some LabVIEW code.  The problem is when the LabVIEW code finishes, it will not close even when the TestStand sequence terminates. Is there a way to tell this LabVIEW code to Exit, I've tried the Quit LabVIEW function, but that causes a C++ RunTime Error.  The LabVIEW code does end though, and it is set in the VI properties to:
    Checked - Show Front Panel When Called
    Checked - Close Afterwardds if originally closed
    The sequence call that the LabVIEW code is launched from has the following options:
    - New Thread
    Unchecked - Automatically wait for the thread to complete at the end of the current sequence
    Unchecked - Initially Suspended
    Unchecked - Use single threaded apartment
    Any clues on this would be appreciated.

    Hi ADL,
    Everything should close correctly if you check the checkbox "Automatically wait for the thread to complete at the end of the current sequence" in the thread settings.
    With it unchecked, I am seeing the behavior you are.

  • I have upgraded to version 8.0, and now every time firefox loads, it asks me to re-enable all of my add-ons. Why is this happening?

    Once enabled, the add-ons load every time I run firefox, however when I reboot my system I am required to re-nable the add-ons again. I have read through a lot of your faq's and not found this issue raised anywhere.
    The rest of my system remains relatively unchanged from before. (ie. I don't recall making changes to anything else that might affect the add-ons)

    See:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Preferences+are+not+saved
    It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
    Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created when required.

    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to do a compatibility check or see if there is a compatibility update available.

  • Macbook Pro running 10.6.8 and I can't update itunes as it freezes everything! It's open at 'determining gapless playback information'  Please help! I've downloaded Combo and it has not help, and have had to force quit on the Mac each time I've tried!

    Please help! I have already tried to use the Combo update, which I downloaded today but it has not help.  Itunes then freezes at the point of 'determining gapless playback information,' no idea what to do next, please help!!

    Deirdre_N,
    you can download the latest iTunes (as of this writing) directly from Apple’s servers here. If you’re already running 10.6.8, then there’s no need to redownload the Combo update; iTunes is an independent download.

  • TS2972 why do I have to turn sharing off and back on each time i use my apple tv?

    Whenever I switch to apple tv and try to access my files, I get the instruction to turn sharing on. When I check, the sharing is already on. I have to turn it off and then turn it back on for the apple tv to detect it.

    There is somewhere on here a thread where some folks have done some in depth technical digging into the problem.
    It seems that in those cases there are multiple 100+ TCP ports being held open between itunes/mac and the atv. I see this x3 with all my atv's when they were connected via ethernet cable. Home sharing is running out of ports to use in simple terms.
    What on earth port forwarding can do for the problem i do not know, you can only forward to 1 device, how would this fix the probelm for subsequent atv's on the network?? It would be madness to do this anyway why would you open a secure port to the internet just to get a media player working
    There are so many reports of this problem manifesting itself in various ways it is hard to give a simple answer
    Some of the solutions just do not make any sense, solutions that work for some are opposite for others wifi <-> ethernet <-> wifi
    I am convinced this is an internal networking issue at a base level, nothing to do with IP6,DHCP/Static/PortForwarding etc. Sleeping atv's may exagerate the problem
    It will end up being a . or a , in the complied code somewhere in the last update of either itunes or ios
    Someone on that thread has written some slick code to check for this problem and restart itunes if it finds it which may be a solution if it cant be solved other ways
    My problem went away when I moved my atvs to wifi connection only, but then I know my network is otherwise good

  • As I go from page to page i have to zoom in to make it big each time?

    If I go on a web site sometimes I have to zoom in to be able to read it .And if open more pages each one has to be zoomed to see.

  • Even though I have ordered Firefox to clear my entire browsing history and cookies when it closes, it is not doing so when I exit. I have to manually clear the history and cookies each time.

    I am running Firefox 10.0.2 for Linux, and have never had this problem with previous versions. I wonder if it is an issue of Firefox not quitting completely when I close it...meaning it would not clear the history and cookies because it is not technically shut down. This is just a theory, however. Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks for the suggestion. I made sure the prefs.js file had read and write permissions, and since then it seems to be saving my settings and deleting all the information I ordered it to on exit.
    Thanks for your help! This was a minor problem, but it's nice to know that everything is working the way it's supposed to now.

    Empty the Safari cache by pressing Command + Option + E on your keyboard.
