Labview porting help?

Hello, 

 

I recently finished a Labview program regarding motor control on Windows XP. It works fine. Now I want the same program to work on other computers. I've tried the program on many other computers also running XP (by just copying and pasting the files), but the motor doesn't give any response at all. How do I fix this? If you need any more details please ask.

 

Thanks.

What are "the files"? Are these VIs? Did you build an executable?

 

Does the other computer have LabVIEW installed, as well as all needed drivers?

If you built an executable, does the other computer have the LabVIEW runtime engine as well as all needed rivers installed?

Do you get any error messages?

Altenbach, 

 

The program is just a VI with a bunch of subVIs. I copied and pasted all of the files onto the other computer. It is not an executable. 

The other computer does have the same version of Labview installed. As for the drivers, I'm not sure. I don't know if the old computer that works has any drivers installed, but the computer I'm trying to port to doesn't.

The error code is -1073807343. The working program through an error code too, but I believe that was just a timeout error. 

 

Thanks.

Are you using serial communications? If so, check for the proper COM port being used in the vi's.

I am using serial communications, and yes, I am using the correct com port.

It's not the correct port according to the error message. What does MAX list?

I'm not sure what you mean by "MAX".
