Automated Test System for NI CompactRIO Modules

Please visit: http://bit.ly/aE4AHy

This demo was presented at NIWeek 2009.

Implement the interchangeable test adapter for measuring/sourcing various signal types of CompactRIO modules. Standardize on the PXI platform for flexibility and expansion room
Take advantage of the touch panel display for operator ease of use. Carry out modular test executive development with NI TestStand, NI Switch Executive, and NI LabVIEW.

wow can I buy the operator and the ITA together?

@holu129 If by operator you mean Allen who narrates the video then probably not. This ITA was built for testing NI products themselves when we manufacture them but as it turns out we do not sell the package together. You can purchase the Touch Panel, LabVIEW, and cRIO seperately though and build this up as we did.

Looks good, I would recommend having a dialog window with a progress bar during a few of the steps, this will allow the operator to know the progress of the step. it currently looks like the step is frozen for 20 seconds or so. I used to pop up a user dialog to allow the operator addtional information during the labview steps which took over 10 seconds.
