Station Options properties

Hi

 

I'm trying to get where the Configure -> Station Options -> Execution default values are but no joy. My goal is to change the default value from feature "On Run-Time Error" to "Ignore".

 

I looked every file on C:\ProgramData\National Instruments\TestStand 2019 (32-bit)\Cfg. 

Using 2019 32-bits (19.0.0.170)

gives you a pretty comprehensive overwiew about which configuration files are used by TestStand.

 

Have you checked GeneralEngine.cfg ?

Hello Oli

Yes I checked GeneralEngine.cfg (as suggested by the config files doc), but the only tags that I "found" regarding this feature were BreakOnStepFailure and BreakOnSequenceFailure bellow InteractiveBranchMode tag (which is the option above the On Run-Time Error feature in Station Options)

 

But, as On Run-Time Error is a select feature, I'm not 100% sure that these tags targets the select option because both BreakOnStepFailure and BreakOnSequenceFailure have a Bool classname. I was expecting something like InteractiveBranchMode tag that has a Num classname and accepts a range of numbers as value (I think these numbers represents the indexes of the select options)

 

Are you aware of this? 

 

Thanks for the feedback!

Ok, when writing this, I just checked, which cfg file had changed after I did the mod in SeqEdit

 

Couldn't you just do a diff on the config files before and after the mod to see what has changed on file level?

An alternative and a preferred method is to use the API (StationOptions.RTEOption - NI). Is that not an option?
