Hello
I have a teststand sequence that runs several sequence files in parallel (each on its own thread). The problem I have is the the teststand sequence editor looks like nothing is happening while all of these threads are running. It will be confusing to an operator unless I can give them some kind of status indication.
My idea was to make a basic labview VI that is called from teststand before the parallel sequences start, show the front panel with all the progress bars, and close the VI from teststand when all the parallel sequences finish.
It looks like UImessages are the best way to accomplish this however all the examples are for creating an entire UI in labview and I cant figure out what is needed vs what is fluff for what I am trying to do. I am looking for a bare bones way to read UI messages from teststand in a labview. The sole purpose of this is to take in numbers and show the numbers on the front panel.
Any help would be much appreciated.
