You must modify the process model sequence files directly to make changes that apply wherever TestStand uses the process model.

TestStand installs the SequentialModel.seq, ParallelModel.seq, and BatchModel.seq process model sequence files and supporting files in the <TestStand>\Components\Models\TestStandModels directory. To modify the installed process model or to create a new process model, copy all the process model files from the <TestStand>\Components\Models\TestStandModels directory to <TestStand Public>\Components\Models and make changes to the copy.

In addition to editing process model sequence files, you can convert normal sequence files to process model sequence files. Complete the following steps to specify a sequence file as a process model sequence file.

1. Select the sequence file and select Edit»Sequence File Properties.
2. In the Sequence File Properties dialog box, click the Advanced tab.
3. Select Model from the Type ring control.
4. Click OK.

Although you edit a process model sequence file in a regular Sequence File window, the file includes Model entry points and Model callbacks. TestStand maintains special properties for entry point and callback sequences, and you can specify the values of these properties when you edit the sequences in a process model file.

When you access the Sequence Properties dialog box for any sequence in a model file, the dialog box contains a Model tab you use to specify the sequence as a normal sequence, a callback sequence, or an entry point sequence.
