Operator Interface on development PC!?

[Cardinal1664]

Hi

I Deployed my TestStand System successfully with a Operator Interface and some sequences and Installed it on a other Computer and it works!
Now I want to install the deployed System on my development PC! Now I have the Problem that my *vi's and .seq from the development are located on a server Network drive and the deployed System is istalled on the local drive C:/ ! Now I have the problem when I run my operator Interface and open a squence from the local drive, it loads the vi's from the Network drive and I don't want that. Whne I add the local drive at the top of my search directories It takes the vis from the local drive. But the when I run TestStand and load my .seq from the network drive for development it use the local path c:/ too. How is it possible that the Operator Interface takes the vi's from the local drive when I load a sequence which is located on the local drive and when I open a squence from the Network drive with TestStand for developing or debugging that it loads the vis from the Network drive!

I hope you understand my Problem!

Hi,

do you call the VI´s in Teststand with absolute paths or relative paths ?
If you call it relative you could manually edit the search path in the INI-File on the deployment machine.
Take a look at the config file on the development machine
..\\National Instruments\\TestStand X.X\\Cfg\\
One entry is
[Config.SearchDirectories[0]]
Path = "your network path e.g. "Z:\\" "
edit this entry on the deployment machine to your local drive.

Best regards

Hi Cardinal1664,

I just wanted to follow up with you and see if you've gotten your system working the way you want it to and the sequence files load the vi's from the right directories.

Also, I wanted to point out that the first item in the search directories is usually the directory of the current sequence file. 
What this means is that if all modules/subsequences are located in a path are relative to the path of the sequence file, and you use relative paths, it should work.
