How do I prepare my target pc when using Deploy TestStand System tool?

[wendell.wells]

On my development pc, I created a workspace file then used the Deploy TestStand Tool to create my installation disks. In the workspace file I included exported files from MAX (configData.nce, MySwitchConfig.xml, and IviConfigurationStore.xml) with the hope that I could import these on my target pc.

What else do I need to do to prepare my target pc? Do I have pre-install MAX, NI488.2, NI-DAQ, NI-VISA, IVI etc?

My code is in LabView7 , and I am using TestStand 3.0.
I am using a pc with a mxi/pxi bridge. My PXI chassis includes: PXI-8330,PXI-6602,PXI-5401,PXI-4070, and some Pickering switches. I use USB-GPIB-B to control some power supplies.

Wendell,

When you create the TestStand Deployment Package, you will have the option to install the TestStand Engine and the LabVIEW 6.1 Run-Time Engine. You will need to manually install any hardware drivers and the LabVIEW 7.x Run-Time Engine (if you developed those VIs in LabVIEW 7.x) on the target machine.

You can find more information on Deployment in the TestStand Reference Manual (Help >> Search the TestStand Bookshelf), Chapter 14.
