TestStand generally does not talk directly to devices.  That is usually done with a code module.  However, you can call DLLs directly from TestStand.  So if the device has a driver that is a dll you could call that as a code module from TestStand.

 

So the layers would generally look like this:

 

TestStand

  |

Code Module (LabVIEW, C#, DLL, etc..)

  |

Driver

  |

Device

 

Hope this helps,

Got this on the forum :

If you install the device drivers from the vendor you should be getting the required DLL.

 

TestStand will be able to call the functions in this DLL.
