Generating a BTS Server Certificate

To generate a BTS server certificate, do the following:

  1. Generate a self-signed certificate. It must be a .pfx file.
  2. Import the certificate on the BTS Server.
  3. Open %PROGRAMFILES%\National Instruments\Battery Test System\WebApplication\appsettings.json in a text editor. Add the following XML section to the appsettings.json file, modified to specify your certificate's endpoint url, certificate url, path, and password. 
      "Kestrel": {
    "Endpoints": {
        "Http": {
          "Url": http://0.0.0.0:60001
        },
        "HttpsInlineCertFile": {
          "Url": https://0.0.0.0:60002,
          "Certificate": {
            "Path": "C:\\bts\\certificates\\bts.pfx",
            "Password": "xxxxxxx"
          }
      }
  },
  "Certificates": {
    "Default": {
      "Path": "C:\\bts\\certificates\\bts.pfx",
      "Password": "xxxxxxx"
      }
    }
  }
  4. Restart the BTS Server. To do so, start the Windows Services application, find and select NI Battery Test System Server in the list, and click Restart.
