Test Stand Simple user interface from top level vi error

[parissa_wall3]

I created an exe from labview which its start up VI is top level.vi which loads the sequence through test stand. I checked everything to make sure it works fine and then I removed the development license from the PC to prevent operators modification to the code, and I left the runtime engine for both Labview and TestStand. but now when I run the exe it gives the error of missing license for test stand. what I should I do in order to be able to run the code independent from development license?

Hi,

You need a TestStand Deployment license, see the following link for deployment licensing options:

I have the Teststand Debug Deployment license, can I activate the base deployment engine using this license? or it will activate the whole debug deployment environment?

I've never tried that but maybe it works otherwise there are other options to prevent that your operators change the code:

• You can create an operator user in TestStand and set a password for the admin account, this prevents the operators from changing your sequences. 
• You can password protect the blockdiagrams of your VIs to prevent them from changing your LabVIEW code.
