build using ni 6009

ssnp — Wed, 08 Aug 2012 09:40:39 GMT

Hi!

I am trying to build installer for NI USB 6009 to flash LED. To my surprise the application is not flashing LED on target machine. When i test using MAX Test pannel in target machine, it is perfectly ok. The VI without build working fine. I did include LV 2011 spi1 runtime engine and daqmx core runtime. Is it logic?

Hi ssnp,

I would include the "full" DAQmx installer instead of the DAQmx "core".

Then I would encourage you to use "basic" DAQmx functions instead of 4 DAQ assistents. That way you would get error messages quite easily to know what happens (and why)...

I have included all daqmx options

Ni DAQmx applicaiton Development Support

Ni DAQmx core runtime 9,3.5

Ni DAqmx MAX configuration support 9.3.5

still the same situation.

hi!

My VI is working perfectly fine. When i build it and install it in host machine it is working perfectly fine . But when I install in other machine ( one i tried XP) it is not working. The MAX test panel also communicate with the relay system.

I am using lv 11 sp 1 in window 7 machine

Did you actually export the hardware configuration from MAX and import it? You don't show that screen and since you are creating a task in MAX, you would obviously need that task on the new pc. The MAX test panel is not relevant in this case.

edit - you have no error handling in your VI. Pretty sure if you had done something as basic as this you would have gotten a message indicating what was wrong.

I am wondering do I have to export in project explorer or just adding in hardware while building is enough?

The hardware config is part of the installer. There is a category called Hardware Configuration. Check the box there.

Did you try manually setting up max on the target to verify functionality Vs.. Verifying installer?

Yes, use proper error handling as I already mentioned. That means adding an error out indicator. That's pretty basic.

Hi,

I got the impression that you were having difficulty getting the MAX configuration to install on a target machine. So I was suggestion setting up MAX manually on the target to insure your code runs, then focus on why the MAX configuration is not installing. Maybe I got the issue incorrect.

the host machine was window 7 but target machine was window xp( although it was build for it) thats why it was not running. it is fine in window 7. this will solve my problem. thanks you all for your support.

But another question arrises why it happened.
