Re: State Machines and Robot Framework

That TypeDef is created by the Mastery Narrator in one of the TipJar videos. It is simply a bunch of different datatypes, in a cluster, converted to a typedef. It's a simple way to keep important data in one place, with the same names/labels/whatever.

Creating a typedef is not very difficult, but I don't have LV on my work PC and don't want to get one of the steps wrong. You basically right-click a cluster, go to its advanced properties page, and use a pull-down to change it into a TypeDef. Hopefully somebody else will reply with the detailed steps, or I can post again later when I get home.

Basic/Advanced doesn't apply this year ... it's all just the Framework.
