Load a VI (including TestStand API) in TestStand

[YR42]

He,

I'd like to load a VI in TestStand without LabVIEW.

LabVIEW Version 8.5

TestStand Version 4.0

The PC with TestStand just have LabVIEW Runtime Engine 8.5, and the VI is used to import data in station globals; Also, This VI calls TestStand API and TestStand Engine.

On a PC with LabVIEW and TestStand, all is OK.

But, on a PC with Runtime only, even if I configure Adapters in TestStand and Select LabVIEW Run time 8.5, an error message is displayed (unable to load VI ... )

I have tested with a simple VI (dialog box), all is ok;

But with VIs thaht called API TestSTand, error is displayed

Do you have an idea ?

Thank you for your responses

On the pc with only the runtime, where did you place the TestStand VIs and controls? Did you use the deployment tool to create a distribution?

I use TestStand in Development System and all VIs are in a LLB.

I don't use deployement for the moment

Yes, I understand that you use TestStand in development system and the VIs are in an llb there. What I ASKED was where you placed the TestStand VIs on the runtime only pc. It sounds like you did not place them anywhere. If you didn't, how do you think the top level VI is going to work? You don't think that these VIs are included in the runtime engine do you? They are not. Only the LabVIEW primatives are in the runtime engine.

You should really consider using the deployment tool.

Hej,

I have used deployment tool and LaBVIEW added two VIs related of TestStand.

The two VIs are in a lib in a directory of teststand but the sequence need the VIs in the same folder of the VIs.

All is OK !

Thank you very much
