Are user-defined system variables available after deployment?

Hi,

 

I am going to deploy a TestStand sequence which calls LabView module vis. In LV I use Vision Builder AI pallette vis to run .vbai inspections. In vbai inspection I have a user-defined system variable in use between two vbais. Next, I am going to deploy these sequences, modules and vbais to production. There will be TestStand and Vision Builder run-time environment installed in the production line computer. Where does the Vision Builder store user-defined system variables? On the other words, are my system variables also included in the deployment when I select vbais into it?

Hi Jick,

 

My VBAI experience is quite limited, but as an initial thought, what if you pass your data from VBAI to LabVIEW, and then from LabVIEW to TestStand? The following article describes how to pass data between VBAI and LabVIEW: Shared Variables to Transfer Data from Vision Builder for Automated Inspection to LabVIEW

Hi,

 

Thanks for your reply. I managed to modify my vbais so that I do not need to use any user-defined system variables. Variables were used between two vbais, so I decided to write them into a file and read back when needed. However, I never tested if they had worked on the run-time computer after deployment.
