What do you need to deploy the Teststand Engine?

[paulmw]

I just received TestStand 3.5 (semi familiar with 2.1) and am trying out the "Common Deployment Scenarios" described in the TestStand Reference Manual.  Unfortunatly I am not completely seing what is described in the manual.  Specificaly, the "Deploying the TestStand Engine" and "Distributing Tests From a Workspace" contain steps that instruct to check the option to add an operator interface in the "TestStand Engine Options" dialog box.
Why am I not seing this option?  Did something change in 3.5 that didn't get change in the manual?  Am I missing a licence?

Hi Paulmw,

The Deployment Utility has chaged in 3.5 and unfortunately we missed the change in documentation.  In order to deply an Operator Interface with your application, you will need to include the executable of your operator interface in the workspace that you deploy.

Should I be using a Teststand Engine with LabVIEW 9 if I'm using a Eurotherm 2404 PID controller?

Not unless you are using TestStand wich I don't think you are.  From this post and your other post on the forum it looks like you are just working with LabVIEW at this time.  TestStand is a seperate appliation for quickly creating sequences for automated test.

Your best bet would be to keep posting in the LabVIEW forum and I would recomend starting a new post of your own too.  Replying to old post with new questions get things side tracked.
