Double post (TestStand forums).

 

As stated there, you should make sure that the VIs are mass compiled with the correct version before deploying them to the target system.

 

What i assume happens:

You installed the LV development system on the target, but did not activate it (since you don't want a development license there).

You copied all the VIs from the old system (older LV) to the target.

You still have the LV adapter configured to execute the VIs in the development environment.

Starting a Sequence, it will load and run the VIs. Since they are not compiled in the correct version, they are recompiled by the development environment. This will add the watermark (since no license is active).

 

Predicting:

After hitting the 30 days eval period, your target will not run the sequences correctly since the VIs are not executable anymore....

 

 

Address it with:

- Proper mass compilation on the development system

- Deploy those VIs

- Make sure, that the target has only the LV RTE (Runtime Engine) installed in the correct version

- Make sure that the LV adapter on the target is configured to execute VIs in the LV RTE.

 

hope this helps,

Norbert
