The goal of this article is to explain the process of integration IO Templates for modular devices created in Instrument Studio and passing them into TestStand for use with LabVIEW code modules.
The steps include creating an IO configuration in Instrument Studio, exporting it to TestStand, and using the configuration in TestStand to link the template to an instrument handle saved as a local variable. Finally, the instrument handle is passed into an action step's LabVIEW code module and we discuss the necessary requirements from a LabVIEW perspective.
