Help Needed – Missing Driver Simulation Library in LabVIEW

[TheFafnir]

Hi All,

I’m currently using LabVIEW 2025 Q3 and TestStand 2025 Q3. I’ve just started learning TestStand, and while working on a basic sequence, I noticed that I’m missing the following library file:
instr.lib\Driver Simulation.

Could someone please let me know how to download or install this library?

Thanks in advance!

You are referring to a library which is provided by the official TestStand Training Courses.

It can be installed from the Course Material (Excercises\Driver Simulation API from the top of my head) 

[TheFafnir]

Thanks for the info!

I’ve already installed the Simulation API from the official TestStand training course materials (from the Exercises\Driver Simulation API folder), but I still don’t see the library files under instr.lib.

Is there anything else I might be missing or need to configure to make them appear?

Appreciate your help!

i have re-installed the driver but still same

Do you happen to have multiple LabVIEW installation on your PC?
Have you installed via batch (old version) or NIPKG (current version)?

[TheFafnir]

NIPKG Current Version.

The installation does finish without errors ???

Are you sure, it is the LabVIEW, not the Python Package you are installing?

Have you tried un-/ re-install?

[TheFafnir]

Yes, the installation completed without any errors. However, it didn’t initially appear in the library. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and after that, it showed up correctly in the library.

Thank you for taking the time to look into this issue I really appreciate your support!
