Using PXI 2567 in switch exec for use in test stand

[edisgay]

I am using a pxi 2567 card and have used a simulated ivi driver to use it in switch executive. To operate the switches from test stand I need to create routes in switch executive. Do I need simulated relays for switch exec to set endpoints, if so where can i get a simulated relay; if not please advise.

You do not need simulated relays. The channel names on the 2567 will be your "virtual" relays. Each of the 2567's 64 channels have names like COMn and CHn, where n is an index from 0 to 63.

You may create routes in NI Switch Executive (and invoke those routes in TestStand). If you do not want to create each named route, you can also use an expression to indicate what you want to have routed.

For example, support your 2567 is named "Dev1" and you wanted to connect relay 0. The syntax for the connect route specification in TestStand would look like:
"[Dev1/com0->Dev1/ch0]"
