Programmatically loading and executing a sequence file in LabVIEW

Does anyone have any LabVIEW code that programmatically loads and executes a sequence file and then returns the end results?  Is it best to do this using the LabVIEW TestStand UI controls or using direct calls to the TestStand API?

Ryan,

i asume that you are going to implement an Operator Interface on your own. I hope that you will start off one of the example OIs supplied with TS.
There you are communicating with TS via ManagerControls. One manager control, the Application Manager, includes a method called "OpenSequenceFile. This would be the one you are looking for if you want to load a sequencefile.
If you want to execute the sequence, you should look into the NewExecution Method from the TS-Engine-Class.

hope this helps,

Ryan,

I've had a good example from Andy McRorie, see this (example2.vi).

Hope this will help
