CRIO and TestStand

[dfschunk]

Hello,

I work since several years now with LabVIEW (Version 2012) and a cRIO (RT, FPGA). It is a project for automated testing.

Now I want to use TestStand for creating Test sequences that are more flexible (absolute no experience with TestStand!!).

In the old .lvproj I had to start a RT_Main.vi that runs and from the Host-PC-VI I selected the individual case for the different teststeps.

Now I don't know how to transfer this to TestStand. Do I need to create a RT-Executable? Is there perhaps something like a tutorial?

I would be glad if someone can give me a few tips! Thanks!

Hi,

a general overview and getting started can be found here.

If you want to use an RT-VI or EXE on a realtime system along with Teststand, you could probably go for

this Teststand shipping example:

(or <TestStand Public>\Examples\LabVIEW RT\Continuous RT Example.seq)
