How do you get a station global or any variable to be read across UUTs executing in the parallel Sequence model?

Dear  Support,
I have two questions regarding the parallel sequence model:
I am trying to find a global variable or any variable that can be universally read from any thread / step .   For instance:
- Parallel sequence Model
- 2 UUTs
- The main sequence has 20  steps
- I am looking for a variable that can be read universally across both UUTs in any step.  I have tried many, even the station global variable - as a Boolean - for "Abort" .  But that did not work either.
Question TWO:   How can I bring out this universal variable to the UI ?  Can you point me to an example?    Do I use the "Lookup"  ,.  I could not get that to work.  Can I use the "Label"  ?  I could not get that to work neither.
Thanks! Brad

  • Can LabVIEW global variables be shared between UUT sequence steps in the parallel sequence model?

    Sorry for this simple question,  I'm having a hard time finding this answer.
    If I launch a sequence to run on two UUTs in the parallel sequence module,   can I get both UUTs to run LabVIEW vis that use global variables such that :
    1) UUT 0  executes 20 LabVIEW Vi  steps asynchronously,  5 of which access data from LabVIEW global variables A, B, C (Strings)
    2) UUT 0 executes the same 20 LabVIEW based steps asynchronously  5 of which access data from then same LabVIEW global variables A, B, C (Strings)
    I am a little worried that using file globals may have some delays or more of a race condition than using native LabVIEW global variables like in a single labview application perform.  
    QUESTION 2:  Are file globals actually written to the hard drive and shared between parallel sequences through file transfer?  OR  are they in memory?

    Hi bdwhaley,
    Are your parallel sequences only reading from the global variable? Or are they writing to the variable as well? If it is just reading, then you should be okay. File globals are read from memory. Every time they are read, a copy of the data is made in memory.

  • How do you get radio stations to play in iTunes?

    I have found the stations in iTunes, but I can not see anywhere that actually lets me play them... im probably asking a really dumb question but how do I do it?

    I have noticed that there are a few radio station in the list that do not play when selected. This could be the case. Although there are only a few that don't respond, you may be selecting a particular one that this is the case with. This could be because that station has stopped broadcasting or only broadcasts during certain hours or....who knows. But if you select a station that does not play, try selecting others in the list and see if they start playing. If so, chances are the issue is with the particular broadcaster and not on your end.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
    But answering quickly, if you mean the streaming stations, click the Internet item:

  • How do I distribute my station globals to a target machine?

    I am using the deployment tool to distribute my sequences to a target PC. When I ran the sequence on the target machine, it couldn't find the StationGlobals that the sequence uses. How do I include my globals in the StationGlobals.ini on the taget machine so that whenever the sequence gets deployed to any other machine the sequence can read and write to those globals. I realize I could copy the StationGlobals.ini from my development machine to my target machine, but I want it to be done automatically when I deploy the sequence. I also don't want to overwrite a StationGlobals.ini that may be used by some other sequence on that target machine. So, basically I guess I would like to be able to add new station globals to any target machine as part of my deployment.
    ThanksMessage Edited by tman on 03-04-2005 03:23 PM

    The most straightforward way to accomplish this is to include StationGlobals.ini in the workspace file that you are deploying. Of course, this too would overwrite the existing StationGlobals.ini on the target machine.
    From what you have described, it sounds like Sequence File Globals may be sufficient for your needs. Sequence File Globals are global to all of the sequences in a sequence file. StationGlobals are variables that can be accessed by any sequence file run on a station. If you used File Globals, you would not have to be concerned about deploying an INI. The File Globals are included in the SEQ file.
    If your system does require StationGlobals, the ideal way to handle this would be to have the StationGlobals.ini on your development machine have all of the StationGlobals needed by the sequence files on your deployment machine.
    Now, to answer your question, you could use a sequence of ActiveX steps to have your additional StationGlobals programmatically added to the StationGlobals on the target computer. For example, you can have one step check if a particular StationGlobal exists. Then, if it does not exist, you can have a second step run that adds the StationGlobal and sets its value.
    Attached you will find ProgStnGbls.seq that has two ActiveX Action steps. The first step checks for the StationGlobal. A boolean Local is returned by this step. The second step is the step that will, if needed, add the StationGlobal. This second step has a Precondition that checks the boolean Local. If the Boolean is false, a new StationGlobal is added. Then, a Post-Expression sets the value of the new StationGlobal. You would want to Run Main Sequence of this sequence file as a last step after deploying the test system.
    Also, ProgStnGbls.seq is currently saved as version 2.0.1 of TestStand. It has been tested with version 3.1 as well.

  • I have just bought a ibook g4  how do you get the internet

    how d you get the internet working from the airport , i have an airport extreme and the spec says airport how do i connect to the internet

    You can connect to the Internet via the Ethernet port or wirelessly. To connect either way you need to have internet service from an Internet Service Provider, or via Wi-Fi. To connect wirelessly at home you need a wireless router like an Airport Extreme base station.
    Please do post back with further questions or comments if any.

    When you "Restore from a Time Machine Backup.", the drive will be erased for you, but yes, won't hurt to:
    Boot into Recovery (hold ⌘R on boot)
    Utility->Disk Utility->Erase Macintosh HD, then Repair Macintosh HD
    Quit Disk Utility
    Then Select: Restore from a Time Machine Backup.
