Running the VeriStand Gateway Silently
Deploy a system definition without launching a VeriStand user interface, such as VeriStand Editor or System Explorer.
By silently running the VeriStand Gateway, you can deploy a system definition, close the user interface, and then reconnect to the still-deployed project upon re-opening the user interface. This allows you to leave the system definition deployed while being able to connect and disconnect testing user interfaces as needed.
