Start LabVIEW in evaluation mode

[.aCe.]

Hello All,

I am building an NI Dev Suite unattended/silent install which includes LabVIEW 2013, TestStand 2013, Switch Exec, some reuse libraries etc.

The installer works fine. After an automatic restart, I need to apply a configuration (automatically) using VI Package Manager and this requires LabVIEW to be working without prompts for licences etc.

Anyone know of a way to start LabVIEW in evaluation mode by default. Any ini tokens / registry entries may be?

I also need the same thing to happen with TestStand as I need to install some configuration to TestStand too.

All of the software will then be licensed by the user afterwards. I would like to avoid building two installers if I can help it.

thanks in advance.
