TestStand station globals sharing between two applicatio​ns

Hi,
I am having two applications developed with CVI 8.5 and TestStand 2010. Both are accessing same station global variable”ESSX2_0.Aux.Status”. Please create a station global in TestStand 2010.
The idea is the Write application shall get the status of the Aux status control at an interval of 1 sec and updates the station global. The Display application shall read the station global and displays the value of the station global.
The write application is updating the station global and I can see the status in Teststand Sequence editor. But my updated value is not getting reflected to my Display application unless I restart the application. I am understanding that the status of the station global variables is taken at the time of the application start in my display application and is not getting refreshed to get the changes from external applications till we restart.
Please help me out so that the display application keeps looking for the updated values.

Station globals are not shared across processes unless you pass a reference to them across processes. There are several ways to do so. The easiest thing to do is create a TestStand sync object like a notification or queue which can transfer a reference to the station globals across processes. Or use the notification or queue directly as your communication mechanism. TestStand sync objects whose name you start with an asterisk '*' character are automatically shared across processes. You can use Engine.GetSyncManager() to get the appropriate sync manager and then use the SyncManager API. Please see the help for more details.

  • Wireless file sharing between two MacBooks

    I feel like this is kind of a silly question, but here goes:
    Is it possible to set up wireless file sharing between two macs when there is no wireless network available.
    For example, if I am on a plane (with no wi-fi) and wan to wirelessely connect to my partners macbook to browse his hard drive, can I do it? Right now, I use a firewire cable when flying, but would love to not have to.
    Thanks for the help.

    Yes, it's possible to do.
    You setup one of the Macs to act as a base station of sorts. If you've got the AirPort Status menu shown you can just use the 'Create Network…' option in that menu to create a new wireless network hosted on this Mac. Just tell the other Mac to connect to that network using the name and security credentials you specified when you created the network, and you're done.

  • Writing to TestStand Station Globals

    Hi,
    I've posted this in the LV board, but realise it may be better suited to the TestStand one...
    I want to write to a TestStand Station Global from within LabVIEW.  I can read from Stations Globals using the method given here: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-11447 but can't work out how to write to them.
    Is it possible? If so, how?
    Any help gratefully received,

    There should be a TestStand palette in your LabVIEW.  In there is a TestStand - Set Property Value.vi.  There is also a TestStand - Get Property Value.vi.  Those will make your life a lot easier.

  • TS2972 is it possible to use home sharing between two users on the same computer?

    My wife and I have itunes accounts and want to be able to share music we have each bought on our accounts. We have tried setting up the home sharing on our PC but it doesn't show up on the screen. Can anyone please help?

    "Is it possible to use home sharing between two users on the same computer?"
    No. Home sharing is used to connect two running instances of iTunes across a network. When you switch users on the computer all applications running on the other profile are suspended.
    You can however share your respective media folders so that they are visible in either profile and then copy over any content that you want, or you could create a single joint library which you use when either user is logged in.

  • Configuring SMTP Namespace Sharing between two Exchange Forests on the same LAN

    Hi guys, really hoping that someone can help me with configuring SMTP Namespace Sharing between two Exchange Forests on the same LAN.
    Basically, I have created a new forest and installed a new exchange organisation in this forest.  Both forests are located on the same IP subnet and a two way trust has been created between the forests.  Federated sharing has also been configured. 
    I can use ADMT to migrate the user and computer accounts to the new forest and also migrate test mailboxes over.  Ideally, I want to be able to do the mailbox migrations in stages so will need to be able to have mail flowing between the two forests. 
    I have read over the following article (http://ibrahimnore.wordpress.com/2012/09/06/configuring-smtp-namespace-sharing-between-two-exchange-forests-part-2/)
    which is good but it's demonstrating over the internet, can anybody advise how this can be achieved on the local LAN? 
    Any help greatly appreciated :-)

    Hi Gilliano,
    Thanks for correct link. I must say this is a very good article indeed, I read the entire article and if you go to the 3rd part of this article, please note the text "DOMAINC.COM is configured as Internal Relay Accepted Domain on both the domains"
    This is exactly what I asked you to check. Personally, I understand the method described in this article will work but its very complex to manage and administer, while the easiest option is to configure internal relay at the first place and no need to make
    so many DNS changes and customizations to your environment.
    The solution really depends on what your requirement is - Since you mentioned that you are migrating stuff over from source to destination - I feel this article is too complex for your situation and not really worth (for your requirement). The setup described
    in the article is an excellent choice if you are planning to keep both forests alive for longer duration due to several reasons like compliance or company mergers and so on...
    please let me know if my explanation is not clear enough.. we can even even have a one-on-one email conversation too!
    All the best!
    Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. Regards, Siva

  • Can music be shared between two devices with different apple IDs?

    Can music be shared between two devices with different apple IDs?

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    iTunes content can be commingled in the iTunes library on a computer and synced to iOS devices. The computer must be authorized to use the content from the respective Apple IDs in the iTunes Store menu.

  • Teststand station global

    Hi,
    Can any body tell me what is the difference between TestStand Sequence file global variable / station global variables and LabView global variables.
    In TestStand, I want to pass one cluster from Setup to Main, which can't be passed using Local variable.
    Using LabView Global variable, I am able to pass cluster from Setup to Main.
    Using TestStand Sequence file global variable / station global variables, the cluster has not been passed from Setup to Main.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Holy

    Holy,
    Local Variables:
    Each execution has its own copies of the local variables. So you can not use them to share data between executions.
    Use local variables to store data relevant to the execution of the sequence.
    Sequence File Global Variables:
    Any sequence in the file can access the global variables for the file. A subsequence can access the global variables in the sequence file that contains the calling sequence.
    Global Variables:
    Station global variables are persistent across different executions and even across different invocations of the sequence editor or operator interface. The TestStand Engine maintains the value of a station global variable in a file on the computer on which it is installed.
    LabView Global Variable.
    The LV global variables are used to access and pass data among several VIs.
    TestStand can not access LV global variables directly.
    You need to call it through a code module.
    I am not sure how are u handling the cluster.
    I assume that you are initializing it somehow in the setup group and after that you use it in the main group.
    1. If you get the cluster from a VI in the setup group and after that you want to use it in the main group you could use a local variable.
    2. If you need to share the cluster among several executions you need to use a global variable.
    Could you give more details about your use case?
    Hope it helps
    Antonio.

  • Can I create a wireless LAN and file sharing between two household Macs?

    I've got an iMac G5 running 10.4.11 and an Intel iMac running 10.5 and was wondering if I create a wireless Local Area Network and file sharing between my two household Macs?

    I have a network set up for my mom using an old blue iMac with an airport card as the base station. I'm using Tiger on the machine, but you should be able to do this on Leopard, too. She's 700 miles away, and I did it quite a while ago, but it seems I set everything up using the Airport Utility. At one point I think I had Internet Sharing on, too, but I don't remember if that's still on. Haven't needed to use file sharing on the network, but my G4 and her boyfriends MacPro happily use the network via Airport. I'm guessing you could share files that way. If it doesn't work, an Airport Express is a less expensive option for the router, at least cheaper than an Extreme.

  • Sharing between two accounts on the same Windows Vista PC

    Is it possible to home share between two different accounts on the same computer?
    On my son's account, iTunes for some reason won't connect to the iTunes Store.  So I would like to enable him to purchase stuff on my account and then use home share to access it.  We both use the same Apple ID at home. 

    By accident I came across a solution that may work for you. This works on a Mac but I think it should work in Windows as well.
    On the Mac, if I log into a user account and launch iTunes and then use Fast User Switching to log into another account leaving iTunes running in the first account. I can then launch iTunes in the second account and access all the media stored in the first account's iTunes library using Home Sharing.
    I believe Windows has the same ability that allows one user to log into their account while another user is already logged in. If so you may be able to do the same thing in Windows. I'm not sure what happens in Windows to running application when the second user logs in though. If applications are allowed to continue running then I don't see why this shouldn't work in Windows as well. If applications are paused then I can see this not working. The key here to to not log out of the first account therby forcing the applications to stop running.
    The downside is that your son would first have to log into your account and launch iTunes before logging into his own account. If giving your son access to your account password is not ideal you could also create a third computer account that both of you have access to that would be used only to store and buy iTunes content. That account could be used as the sharing account that you both can have access to while logged into your own respective accounts.

  • SMTP Namespace Sharing between two mail system

    I have used two mail server (Exchange 2013 and Linux sendmail) for mailing in the same domain like abc.com.
    I have converted authoritative domain in to internal relay for sending mail in Linux mail user, and create a send connector point to Linux mail system as a smart host. in that case my exchange user send mail to Linux user and internet via Linux smart host,
    then I create a receive connector in exchange server for receiving mail from Linux mail system as edge transport custom connector & permission set to anonymous, when Linux user send mail to my exchange user it queued in my exchange message queue and
    the error is:
    Last Error:A local loop was detected.
    What's the problem?

    Hi rana78,
    As Nathan mentioned, please create Contacts.
    Detailed information:
    So to avoid NDRs when using shared SMTP namespace you will need to either disable recipient filtering, configure the product to do LDAP queries against all directories that share the namespace, or create Contacts.

  • Tried to setup Shared between two MacBooks, now cannot login to either

    I tried to setup a sharing folder between two MacBooks at home, both have Snow Leopard and with the latest software update, but when I turned off both MacBooks then turned them back on, it will not go pass the white Apple screen showing it's processing, but does not go to the login screen.
    What can I do to login back into my MacBooks?
    Thanks
    -Erica

    Ok, I don't follow that.
    You selected the Hard Drive and Get Info.
    Now, did you click the Shared Folder check box, or did you go to Sharing and Permissons and make changes?
    changed the shared settings to a folder on both MacBooks
    There is no ability to change settings to a folder from the Get Info panel. You can add a user and give them specific access, or change the current user's access rights, but not indicate a folder.

  • Problem using DVD/CD sharing between two MacBooks

    Trying to share the DVD/CD drive between two MacBooks one running 10.5.5 the other 10.4.11. Both have the DVD/CD migration sharing update, and we've followed the instructions for setting up sharing between the two systems. They are both connected to the same wireless network. For whatever reason, we cannot see each other's DVD drive, there is no icon on the left hand side of the Finder window. We've RTFM, so if you have any additional insight into this issue, please let me know, as we're a little perplexed by the issue.

    I haven't done that kind of networking since OS9 days but I remember back then that connected drives were not part of the network. Of course OSX has come a long way so I'm likely out of date. I have read DVD drives are visible if you are connecting in Target Disk Mode.
