NI USB CAN 8473 with real time engine

i am using NI USB CAN 8473, its driver version 2.5.2 and labview 8.2. I havle all these installed in one laptop and i am able to send and receive can messages. Now i built the .exe of the same vi and trying to run it another laptop which doesn't have Labview installed in it. But i have installed run time for 8.2 and same NI-USB-CAN driver 2.5.2

 

But still it is not working in the second laptop. Can any one support me for the same...

Hi Manhesh,

 

I think you meant to say, "Does the USB CAN 8473 work with the LabVIEW Run Time Engine?" LabVIEW Real-Time Module and Engine are not the same thing as the LabVIEW Run-Time. (Just a side note that the USB CAN devices do NOT work on LabVIEW Real-Time OSes).

 

Can you tell us a little more on how it is not working? Is the executable loading, but you don't see CAN traffic? Is this your LabVIEW VI that you builting into an EXE, or an example? Does an example CAN program from the example finder built into an EXE work OK? Do other LabVIEW built EXE work OK? Does your USB CAN device show in MAX?

Dear Joshua

 

the problem was not because of NI-CAN. I am using an excel sheet for data logging and i am giving the path for that excel file in labview. So when i make an executable out of that and run it in my laptop it is working fine. When i shift the executable to some other laptop it showing Open/Close/Create error. 

Then i removed the data logging option and made the executable and its working fine in all other laptops.

I couldnt solve the problem of file path yet.

 

Regards

Mahesh
