Executing Test Programs in Offline Mode (TSM)
Note Although simulated instruments behave as closely as possible to real instruments, measurements and data differ in Offline Mode. Additionally, custom code that processes results, test time performance, instrument functionality, and error reporting might differ in Offline Mode and can result in different behavior of the test program.
Complete the following steps to execute a test program in Offline Mode on a computer without access to NI instruments.
- Confirm that Offline Mode is enabled.
- Click the Start Lot
button or the Single Test
button on the TSM toolbar. Note TSM and the TSM Operator Interface update the simulated instruments to match the Offline Mode system configuration file associated with the test program before the test program begins execution. TSM does not automatically update the simulated instruments when you run test programs any other way. - Review the results.
