Hello All,
I am setting up a laptop from scratch to make edits to an existing Teststand and Labview project relying on drivers and toolkits. I don't have access to the ATE, the laptop has Teststand 2016 and Labview 2016 installed. I ( believe I) have installed version compatible toolkits and drivers for TS and Labview.
The issue:
1. I successfully installed the toolkit 'NI Automotive Diagnostic Command Set Toolkit', version 10.0.0f2
2. MAX shows this toolkit as installed
3. File Explorer doesn't show the installed directory pointed to in MAX
4. NI Package Manager clearly shows NI-ADCS is installed
5. Trying to load a vi that relies on finding the NI-ADCS toolkit results in numerous warnings.
To summarise, it appears the NI-ADCS toolkit has been installed although I cannot find the MAX Path folder containing the installed NI-ADCS Toolkit. Also when trying to load existing vis that are dependant on the NI-ADCS being available the Labview 'Load and Save Warnings List' popup declares the NI-ADCS hasn't been found.
Advice appreciated...
Many Thanks, Chris

Hi,
This question is best to be posted at Automotive and Embedded Network forum.
To answer your question, the runtime engine only allows you to run the library from a deployment environment. The warning dialog states that "NI-ADCS Support for LabVIEW 2016 is missing". You would need to install the Full version of NI-ADCS Toolkit.

Item 1 is the issue!
You did not install the NI-ADCS toolkit V10.0.0f2, but you installed NI-ACDS runtime V18.0!
It would be best to install the LV2016 version of that toolkit!
Btw. using NIPM will not help you with your LV2016/TS2016 installation, as it only supports LV2019 or newer!

Hello ZYOng & GerdW,
Both answers, answered my question, so a big thankyou for helping the penny to drop :0)
After realising I had been installing the runtime only, I returned to the download page and spotted 2 flavours of download for Ver 18.5 where 'Full' is greyed out (not available) but 'runtime' is available. Now I appreciate I need the 'Full' version. Well done.
I had a quick look to see how to re-post this to Automotive... but nothing obvious popped up.
Regards
