Missing "NI Veristand" folder in vi.lib (C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2018\vi.lib)

[Rohit@NI]

I am trying to use custom device from github for serial communication task with PXIe 8135RT controller RS232 comm port.

I downloaded the package from below link:

https://github.com/NIVeriStandAdd-Ons/Instrument-Custom-Device

Now when I try to open the project (Instrument Addon labview project) from above package, it searches for Custom Device API.lvlib but not able to locate it, so I cannot open and mass compile the project. What is the issue? Why is it not able to locate Custom Device API.lvlib and why is it that I can not see NI Veristand folder in vi.lib folder (C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2018\vi.lib)

Problem resolved.

It was because of two reasons

1. Order of installation. It should be done in following way

Labview 2018, Addons like Labview RT, VISA, Serial etc. and Veristand in the end.

2. Install 32bit version of Labview 2018.
