Hello, is it possible to have versitand automatically deploy when the RT is booted?
I have noticed that when you start up veristand it comes back usually saying that "it couldnt find a system definition file" then it enter the state"VeriStand Engine idle. Awaiting command..."
I started playing around trying to get the veristand engine on the RT to automatically deploy on boot but got somehow stuck.
My finding is that, once the Host compiles and transfer everything to the RT, on the RT the file /ni-rt/NIVeriStand/SystemDefinitionData.nivscfg contains an absolute path to the .sdf file. So i moved my .sdf file to my host PC C:\ path, deployed (which compiles a new SystemDefinitionData.nivscfg) and at this point the SystemDefinitionData.nivscfg file contained an absolute path of C:\mysdffile.sdf
I then manually FTP'd mysdffile.sdf to the RT root and power cycled the machine.
At this point Veristand sees the file and tries loading it but than fail miserably claiming that for some reason some of my cards dont exist.
Does anyone know if it is possible to have Veristand automatically deploy and how?
This is the error I get. If i deply the same SDF from the host it deploys just fine.
