This project allows developers to easily manage Teststand users from LabVIEW.

The intended usage is to incorporate these VIs into your own custom UI, or to use them within a standalone application.

Usage

All functionality is implemented in the EasyUserManager class. Complete the following steps to use implemented functions:

1. Initialize an EasyUserManager object providing the teststand engine reference.

2. Start the Teststand Application.

3. Use class functions on the EasyUserManager object.

4. Shut down the Teststand Application when you are done.

5. Close the engine reference of the EasyUserManager object.

Note: In LabVIEW you can obtain the Teststand engine reference by executing a GetEngine InvokeNode on the Application Manager reference. Also, you need to start/shutdown the teststand application with the corresponding InvokeNodes on the Application Manager reference.

From Teststand you need to initialize the EasyUserManager object with the "Initialize from Teststand.vi". Use Runstate.Engine as the Engine Reference input. This engine reference is duplicated, so you need to close it after usage (e.g. during clean up). Search for "Duplicating COM References in LabVIEW" in the Teststand User Manual for further information on this topic.

Refer to the documentation file \help\Hasbun Wood Engineering\Easy User Manager\Easy User Manager.pdfand the provided examples for further information.

Examples are located in \examples\Hasbun Wood Engineering\Easy User Manager. This repository contains an example LabVIEW Project (which you can access through Help -> Find Examples using the keyword Easy User Manager) and an example Teststand sequence.

Dependencies
