Report plugin#

The report model plugin runs as a result processor. It scans each Additional Result for numeric values and streams every one to a channel named after the result, so the sequence itself stays untouched.

Warning

The report model plugin is an alpha release and handles single-point numeric results only. Waveforms and other data types need the test steps.

Set up the plugin#

Once installed, the plugin appears under Configure > Result Processing. Add Nominal Core Result Streamer with the Insert New button, then open its configuration and choose a mode:

Mode

Behavior

direct to dataset

Streams every result to one dataset you have already bound to an asset in Nominal.

stream to asset

Takes an asset RID, finds or creates a dataset by name beneath it, and creates a run for each UUT.

generate asset per test

Creates an asset per UUT from a prefix plus the UUT serial number, each with its own dataset named TestStand, run, and stream. Without a serial number, the current time in seconds stands in for it.

Timestamps#

Each value carries the timestamp of the step that produced it, which is imprecise for long-running steps. To supply your own instead, add a second result with the same name plus _ts, _time, or _timestamp. Its value can be:

  • text in the format TestStand®’s Date() and Time() functions return, date or time first, such as 7/30/2026 12:07:19 PM;

  • seconds since the engine started, as Seconds(True) returns;

  • seconds since 1970, as Seconds(False) returns;

  • any other number, read as a LabVIEW® timestamp (seconds since 1904).

The example sequence uses each format.
