How can I set defaults in the TestStand's step settings Labview Advanced Settings tab to run a VI on a remote PC?

I am accessing a VI many times which is run on a remote PC.
When I click Step Settings, click on the Module tab, then click on the Labview Advanced Settings, there is are options for running a VI on a remote PC.
An annoyance is having to enter the remote host, remote VI path, port number and timeout settings every time I created a step to call the VI in the tests. These are a constant, or at least the rule by far rather than the exception. The TestStand step settings default is the VI does not run on a remote PC (unticked) and there are of course no IP addresses etc as defaults. So if I make a minor change to the tests such as the remote VI location, I have to manually change it is every occurrence of the VI being called. This is very time consuming and is prone to human error.
Is there a way I can preset these settings so that every time I call a Labview module, these defaults are invoked without me having to set them every time?
I guess a workaround is to have the VI run in a subsequence, so that the settings are made just once, but I would prefer not to have to do that.

Hi,
What you can do if you are using TS4.x is create your first step, then add it to the Template List. Then use the step from the template list when you require similar steps. See User Manual Chapter 3-6.

  • The default priority setting in Mail is set to "normal"  and is causing emails I send to be sent with red priority flag. How can I set default priority to low = no flag?

    The default priority setting in Mail is set to "normal"  and is causing emails I send to be sent with red priority flag.
    I have found the flags to reduce the priorty level manually to "low Priorty", but how can I set default priority to low = no flag?
    Thank you for advising,

    Try deleting the .plist.
    Quit the application.
    In Finder hold down the option/alt key while selecting the Go menu item. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop. 
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer ones.
    If you want to make your user library permanently visible, run the below command in Applications/Terminal.
    chflags nohidden ~/Library/
    You will need to do that after any updates.

  • How can I set default values for Allocate Mode in AO config?

    Hi, How can I set default values for allocate mode in AO config. To be specific, in the attached vi, I need to set the Allocate Mode in AO Config to 'Use FIFO Memory (6)' if the value inside my case structure is false and to 'no change (0)' if the value inside the case strusture is true.

    Create two constants for the Allocate Mode input (right click > create > constant). Place one in the true case of the case structure, and place the other one in the false case. Wire them to the same tunnel (border of the case structure), then wire the tunnel to the Allocate Mode terminal of the AO Config. I don't have Traditional DAQ installed, but that should do it.

  • How can I set default printer options on an iMac for an HP pro 8500 printer to print in draft mode?

    How can I set default printer options on an iMac for an HP pro 8500 printer to print in draft mode?

    When you use the Canon driver, the 2 sided printing is set in a different location. There is an entire menu dedicated to it (at least on my mx892). The printer dialog box has a menu selector in the middle of the screen (I think it says "layout" by default). If you click on it, you will see the duplexing options at the bottom. Much more flexibility than the single checkbox available with "airprint". The interface is unusual (at least for me) but you can pre-set up many different configurations (Fast Duplex, Fine Single-sided, B&W, Photo, etc etc.)

  • How can I set default value to a transient parameter  in the VO

    I have created a transient parameter in the VO, which is type of boolean.
    When I try to input the "true" or "True" or "Y" in the 'default value',
    and then running the programm, but all failure.
    so I don't know how can i do.
    Genuinely waiting for you help, thanks in advance.

    Hi Sumury,
    First of all you could check if this transient attribute is read only. to check this, edit the VO and select the transient attribute under the Attributes tab. Then verify if it is marked as "Updateable Always" on the right-hand section.
    If it is updateable, then try setting the default value on the VO Implementation class: open the xxxVOImpl class, go to the transient attribute's setter (setxxx()) and change it to:
    <code> if (getXXX() == null) setAttributeInternal(XXX, "Y");
    else setAttributeInternal(XXX, value);</code>
    This might work. If it does not, then please post the exact message you are receiving when running the app.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I set default copies for specific report?

    I'm trying to set a default of one copy on a specific concurrent request. In this particular case, the NACHA request that produces the NACHA magnetic file. I have a dummy custom printer driver, style, etc. setup and attached to the NACHA concurrent program so that when it executes (as long as the user remembers to put 1 in the Copies field on the concurrent request screen) it will execute the Unix shell script (it grabs the file and FTP's it somewhere).
    The problem is, if the user forgets to put 1 in Copies, the Unix shell script won't execute. I'd like to make it so this one request comes up with a default of 1 in Copies. The only way I know of to set copies is in the site profile, application profile (like HR, AP, etc.) or user profile. I really don't want any of these because then the default will be set for all reports within those respective profiles. I was hoping there was a way to set the number of copies in the printer control file, but thus far I can't find any current documentation that shows the syntax of the available commands for the printer control file. Found something on the Internet, but it looked like it was for Oracle 7, perhaps. We're on 11i. On that page, I saw nothing about setting copies, so I don't know if it was just missed, isn't possible or is possible in the new version.

    Looks like I may have found my answer.
    Create a report set
    Add the concurrent program to the report set
    set copies in the options zone of the report set to 1
    Run the report set instead of the concurrent program itself and the copies will always be defaulted to 1.

  • How can I set or reset the page that is loaded when I open a new tab using Ctrl t ?? by

    I recently downloaded a program that has, as an undesired additional action, apprently setup Yahoo as the page that opens by default when I open a new tab using <Ctrl> <t> (or the <+> symbol on the tab bar). This is aggravating to me, particularly as I have not been able to find a way to stop it occurring.
    I expect that it is buried somewhere in my profile, but I also have not found a way to explore or edit the contents of my profile.
    There is a JScript script file called "user" in ...\profiles\4g4vpust.default that I suspect is associated with the behaviour, but renaming it achieved nothing.
    Prior to this, my new tabs used to open as blank pages, i.e. did not load any URL and I was happy with that. How can I get back to that state?

    Did it add the freeze net assistant add-on? That add-on is known to do this. If you have that add-on you can uninstall it Firefox should revert to the default behavior.
    If you do not have that add-on, another add-on will be causing this, you can use the procedure in the following link to identify what one - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

  • How can we set default value within html:file

    Hai,
    To set default value to text box i use the following code. It works well.
    <html:text property="modifyserverdesc" value="<%= serverDesc%>" styleClass="text" size="38"/>But for file i use the code
    <html:file styleClass="file" property="modifyserverimgfile" value="<%= serverImage%>" size="40"/>It doesn't display value. What is problem here?

    Hi,
    guess that one option in a RowImpl would be to check if the attribute is null or if the attribute value can be found in the VO that populates the list. If first is true or seconds false (cannot be found) you return the first value of the VO, making it the current attribute value

  • How can we set default IM status?

    We are implementing convergence for our users and the initial reaction has been very positive. However, one feedback item has been that the IM client always defaults to the status of "Available."
    There doesn't appear to be a way in preferences to have the user select their preferred default IM status.
    Is there another way to do this?
    I've also tried changing the status and then exiting, but it comes back as Available being the status on the next login.
    Thanks

  • How can I get any of the search requests to open in a new tab and not the current window. I have just downloaded the new FF8

    In my previous version of FF, whenever I did a search with any search engine the results opened in a new tab. Now with FF8 the results open in the current window which really is inconvenient. How do I get the search results to open in a new tab instead?
    I have Windows xp FF8

    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
    *Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
    *Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)
    Use the Filter at the top of the page to locate this pref: <b>browser.search.openintab</b>
    If the value of the browser.search.openintab pref is false then toggle the value to true with a double click on that line.

  • How can I do to change the web site when I open a new tab.

    Dear Friends...
    I cant find information, how to changes the web site when I open a second tab. Example: when I open Firefox my home page is google and that is perfect but when I open a second tab, why appears yahoo as home page? I want to changes that and I cant find how to do it . Thanks

    The normal behavior is to open a blank tab, an add-on will be causing it to display Yahoo. One add-on that does this is the freeze net assistant, if you have that one you can uninstall it and it should revert to opening a blank tab.
    There are add-ons that let you specify what should open in a new tab, such as:
    * NewTabURL - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl
    * New Tab Homepage - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage
    Another way of opening the home page in a new tab is to middle click on the home button in the navigation toolbar.

  • How can I set default toolbar layout for all users in my system?

    Hi everybody! I am running a local ubuntu server at my office. I can set some defaults preferences (about:config) for all new users in the system by defining those prefs in the /etc/firefox/syspref.js.
    Now, I want to define default toolbar layout in a similar way (maybe not needed but fun), to copy the toolbar layout for my user. Is there a general way to do that?
    thank you in advance!

    You can try to create a default template folder (defaults/profile) in the Firefox and place the file(s) in that folder for newly created profile.
    The only way to customize an existing profile is to copy files directly to it.

  • How can I set default value in a field based on a LOV?

    The item is a select list w/ db column as source: PRIORITYID

    Hi Scott. thanks for answering. I get from your post that I need to declare a variable and then return something. I changed it to this
    declare v_id number := null;
    begin
      select id into v_id
          from FAC_LK_PROJECT_PRIORITY priority
          where txtname = 'Medium';
      return v_id;
    end;and it works.
    Why do you use a loop? In case there's >1 row returned by the query?
