This paper identifies the architectural components necessary for implementing the MOD's Open System Architecture Runtime System (OSA-RTS) using the LabVIEW graphical environment for communication with the test equipment. The OSA-RTS provides common shared elements to provide ATE components to implement ATML solutions for translating ATML's Test Descriptions and Test Equipment Descriptions into run able test programs, utilizing a "Carrier Language" approach. This paper identifies the additional components needed to create runable test programs utilizing "Graphical Test Program" using a LabVIEW-based runtime environment. This architecture allows ATML's Test Descriptions to be directly translated into ruanable code, extending the supported platforms for rehosting standards based test descriptions. The architecture reuses and builds on the existing OSA-RTS elements including Test Signal Frameworks (TSFs), ATML Test Equipment Descriptions and IEEE Std 1641 signals, but test programs to be implemented using VIs integrated with a overarching test executive (TestStand). Finally the paper considers the use of IVI Switch to provide path level switching and identifies alterative Switch implementations that adhere to the IVI standard, and shows how these can be preconfigured unitizing the ATML hardware standards to identify the required routing. This architect design provides a design template for ATE designers and Test programs for rapidly implementing Standards based OSA-RTS on their existing ATE platforms.
