InstrumentStudio provides multiple ways to help automate validation and production test through in-app sequencing, copy-paste integration with NI TestStand, and the ability to export instrument configurations to your choice of API.
InstrumentStudio features a sequencer tool to add interactive panels as test steps. Its interactive sequencing lets you validate hardware from the instrument, measurement, and automation level—all while monitoring instruments and measurements during execution. For more advanced validation or production test, InstrumentStudio provides copy-paste functionality when used with NI’s test executive software, TestStand. For programming development, export instrument configurations to your choice of API.
Automating measurements using the sequencer tool can enable you to efficiently perform multistep measurement tasks, saving time and ensuring consistency. Once you have configured the step to your needs, click the “Add to sequence” button to build a sequence.
For more advanced validation or production test, you can add measurement plug-ins to TestStand. From InstrumentStudio, you can copy and paste measurements directly into the sequence—or TestStand will automatically detect installed measurement plug-ins in the measurement step.
Configure instruments interactively and export the configuration file to your choice of API, such as NI LabVIEW or Python. Exporting configurations allows you to call a single import function to guarantee measurement correlation instead of setting every parameter individually through a programming API.
