Upgrade to LabVIEW caused 2012 issue additional installers

Hello again all you lovers forum useful!

I've been using LabVIEW 2010 (SP1) for awhile on my Windows XP computer, but I recently bought and installed LabVIEW 2012 for a future project.  In the meantime, my previous projects should always use LabVIEW 2010 until I use the tracking system of formal changes to my company to upgrade.  However, when I opened recently one of my old projects in 2010 to update and rebuild the installer, I saw in the tab other installers a bunch of empty lines at the end of the list (see screenshot).  This is not directly the hurt, but I think it's a symptom of the root problem.

Most directly concerned, the NI VISA Run-Time 5.0.3 which had been checked before was now gone and the NI-VISA Run-Time 5.2 driver which had replaced it has NOT been verified.  That seems like an upgrade oops on part of National Instruments for me.  I decided that it was just a thing, and that the installer of 2012 had replaced my 5.0.3 version with version 5.2 (removal of the old version), so I checked the version 5.2 to build my Installer, and after having demanded that my DVD to copy the software on my computer, which seemed to work ok.

Now the immediate problem: when I distributed the project file to a colleague that has LabVIEW 2010, she was not able to build my software installation, because he asked her to drive "FADEC_Emulator".  "FADEC_Emulator" is the name of my software.  Expansion of the error dialog box showed that he wanted the drive for access to NI VISA Run-Time 5.0.3.  Open the properties of the installer in the project file in LabVIEW showed NEITHER VISA Run-Time checked 5.0.3.  However, the project of opening with Wordpad file showed that NEITHER VISA Run-Time 5.2 has been listed as an extra Installer (and NOT 5.0.3  Maybe its system because I wanted NEITHER VISA Run-Time 5.2 and replaced it automatically with the latest version, he had, 5.0.3?  Confusing!  And if he did it, why he had that version already practicing?  And versions of switching as it seems it would be a bad idea to do it silently, in case I was counting on a specific feature of the new version.

I'm afraid that since installing LabVIEW 2012 my system got in an unstable state, and now I possibly corrupted my LV project project file.  I need to have in 2010 and 2012 on my computer at the moment.

Does anyone have an idea of what's going on with my system, or how to fix it?

Thank you very much in advance for your suggestions and time!

Hey Joe,

I tried to reproduce your problems and met with mixed results. Please check with what I have provided below that we test in the same conditions

In this scenario, I built a test project with VISA RT 5.0.3 and LabVIEW 2010 configuration. I then installed LabVIEW 2012 and VISA 5.2.0 on top of the above configuration. When I opened the project from 2010 to 2012, VISA Run-Time 5.2 has been verified (as expected, dissimilar to your configuration). As I mentioned earlier, this may have been because VISA 5.2.0 did not install correctly.

In this case, I built the installation program on LabVIEW 2012 with VISA RT 5.2.0 then saved for LabVIEW 2010 compatibility. When I open the installer in a LabVIEW with VISA 5.0.3 2010 environment, VISA 5.0.3 has been verified (as planned since LabVIEW by default to the latest version of VISA on the PC, no matter what the original installer referenced). I did, however, see three additional empty lines in the additional installers (see below) tab. I also tried to build the Setup program that you have indicated, but did not get all the guests for the discs and was able to successfully build.

One thing to keep in mind is that default LabVIEW uses the version of the driver that is installed on the PC version, whether it is newer or older than the installer references. If you feel that this has a negative impact on your success as a developer, please do not hesitate to post a feature request (for example, a guest at changes of the version of the driver) in our forum for the exchange of idea (http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/idb-p/labviewideas ).

Finally, regarding empty lines in the additional installation specifications, this problem seems to be fixed in LabVIEW 2012 and manifests itself only in 2010. During my trial class, this does not affect installers of construction and is a minor inconvenience that has been fixed in later versions.

Please let me know if you have other questions/comments on these issues.

  • Purchase / upgrade of LabVIEW with more Sound and Vibration

    Hi, supporters OR Forums,

    I'm new in LabVIEW but I'm working on a project that needs to use LabVIEW in these toolkits: DAQmx, PID and then Sound and Vibration Control.

    In order to experience on the vibrations, I need to use screws of Suite Sound and Vibration, which was not purchased in my Institute. We had the license for LabVIEW 2009 SP1. Unfortunately, I have a VI file written in LabVIEW 2010 my partner. According to the records of view VI, there is a lack of following screws:

    -SVFA Power Spectrum.vi
    -Application Directory.vi
    -SVT FFT .vi spectrum (Mag-Phase)
    -Frequency response (Mag Phase) .vi SVT
    -SVFA amplitude and Phase Real and Imaginary.vi
    -SVL get spectrum subset.vi
    -SVT UFFT58 write.vi
    -SVT UFFT58 write record 6 vi
    -SVT HFFT58 close file.vi

    I would like to confirm if these screws are supplied in the detroit and Viration Suite or / and other toolkits. If all of them can be found in the following Sound and Vibration, what I have to do is to buy the offer away from NOR, is it not? How much should I pay for this Suite.

    On the other hand, if we upgrade from LabVIEW 2011 (which is said to be able to deal with better timer - for the function of data acquisition), how much in total so also buy us more Sound and Vibration 2011.

    In comparison, which of the above two options is preferable in terms of price.

    For your information, I am working on my thesis at University in this means we would like to have a university degree.

    Plesea give me ideas on this subject. I'm sorry if my post is not fit to be posted here but I sent 2 emails to NI Germany (1 for the customer on the Web page Service NOR) and 1 in the Sales Department, but there is no response after more than 3 weeks.

    Thank you very much.

    Kind regards.

    Thinh Vo

    Hi thinhvo,

    All of these VI are included in the Suite Sound and Vibration, which means it's the only additional package that you would need to buy.  On the site OR in the States, the Sound and Vibration Measurement Suite USD $4119 costs.  Since I'm an applications engineer, I'm not in a position where I can advise you on the price, and I am sorry to say that it will be easier for you to contact your engineers in sales in Germany (I guess you are in Germany).  You may have better luck calling into lines of support rather than by e-mail.

    Thank you

  • Additional installers do I need to use the web server?

    I am building an application in LabVIEW 8.6 and want it includes the Web of LabVIEW server and eventually Web Services.  Should additional installers I include?  In addition to the runtime, the following options are: 'LV Web Services', "NI LabVIEW Run-Time Engine Web Server", "NI LabVIEW Web Server."  I can find no documentation explaining the differences between these - especially the last two.

    Hello Nathan,.

    From 8.6 web server is a separate component. Just as LabVIEW desktop is a separate installation program since the runtime if there is a web server for each component. In addition, Web Services is a component that is generated on the web server.

    So, if you need web server in the Office two, LabVIEW and RTE and you eventually will need to deploy web services, as well, then you'll need to install these components.

    Here's our FAQ to get Web services work - you might be useful.

  • upgrade to labview 2013 problems now with labview 8.6

    Upgrade to Labview 2013 a few days ago and framework installation changed my MAX existing since version 5.1 to version 5.5 with CAN 2.7.5.

    Because all my previous software was written in version 8.6 and customer requirements, this can not be changed and if I need 'backward compatibility '.

    However check the supported versions in CAN it only seems to go back as far as Labview version 10.0?

    Worse still, when I try and load any program written in LabVIEW 8.6 8.6 I now get "cannot find file" for the DAQMX as

    DAQMX------Write.llb------DAQMX------Write.vi etc.

    Tried the navigation in the folder named "MAX."

    The questions are:

    What I have to remove and MAX and re - install the earler versions for compatibility with 8.6?

    If so this can be done without removing my 8.6 install/2013 installs?

    Yes, the new DAQmx versions are not compatible with LabVIEW 8.X.  You can just uninstall DAQmx and then install your previous version to restore your support 8.6, but you will have lost the support of DAQmx for 2013.

  • Problems with PCI-7811R after upgrade from LabVIEW

    Hello

    I have been using a PCI-7811R under LabVIEW 8.2 for quite awhile without difficulties. However, I just upgraded to LabVIEW 2009 and it seems to have stopped working.

    Any suggestions?

  • Additional installers


    Similar to hardware DAQ requiring additional installers DAQmx, the DMM should also have NOT-included DMM.  Once again, this will include all the necessary drivers for that Windows detects hardware and for MAX see Configure, use of test panels and use it in your EXE built.

    Same thing with any switch devices.  I have not much used, but I think that what you want is to include OR-Switch software as additional setup.  Did you use Switch Executive?  You need to include that and I think that has a deployment license.  Not sure about any config Switch Executive export and import on desktop deployment.

    I need not write any Ko, I'm just here to help and get help too.  Thanks for the congratulations.

  • Keithley 6221 pilot - upgrade to labview 2009 to 2012

    Hello

    I use the Labview drivers provided by Keithley, to control a power supply Keithley 6221. They provide for LV 8 and 2009 versions, and I currently use 2009. However, I have to spend to LV 2012. Compatible drivers 2009 will be ok with LV 2012? This who should I look for?

    As you have to connect to the Web of Keithley site to download the drivers, I have attached to them.

    The drivers are provided with VISAS, so I don't expect upgrade problems around 2012.  The thing I noticed is that the files are set to read-only.  Disable via Windows Explorer so that you can compile mass screw before use.

  • Should I upgrade my macbook mid 2012 lion 10.7.5 pro to El capitan?

    Some things have worked odd how wifi does not immediately connect and safari in place, and El capitan appears to be sound got some interesting features and is relatively stable, so I think the upgrade.

    However, I wonder if my material from mid-2012 (macbook pro) be able to match with the El Captian software?

    People have already done this without problems?
    Thank you

    No, nobody... Seriously? El Capitan will be much better than the Lion even on your old equipment for many decades.

    Basic steps for the OS X upgrade

    Save the installer somewhere before you actually install El Capitan because Setup deletes automatic after installation. If you get a 16 GB USB flash drive and download DiskMaker X , you can create your own flash bootable installation USB key.
