Upload a file to a hardware with ethernet connection using teststand

[Hatem_Alaboud]

Hi

I am totally new to TestStand, and I have been given a task, where among other things I need to upload a file (software image) using teststand to some hardware that is produced by our company, the hardware has an ethernet connection.

My question is how to create a step in the teststand that establishes a connection to the hardware IP address?

Then I need to make it choose a file from a specific directory, see please the attached pictures..

I hope I made my question clear!!

Thanks for taking the time to read and give some guide in this regard.

Hi,

You need to create a VI to do it ( or a DLL ).

This VI will connect to the hardware and upload the file.

From TestStand you need to call this VI.

It can be a VI or function in DLL.

You can add parameters to the functions...basically file path and hardware IP if required or else you can fix it in your code.
