Solution

There are multiple reasons why this behavior happens:
1. Check the availability of the Core Module which is necessary for using NI-TestScale.
2. Verify, that the power supply works correctly. You can find more specific information in Power Considerations document.

After checking the steps above, if the issue still persists, contact NI Technical Support for further assistance.
