Ni-Scope 3.3 driver install

[reteb1]

I run LV 7.1 , LV Run Time 8.0 , MAX 4.0 , Ni-Daqmx 8.0 and Ni-Scope 2.1.

Now I need Ni-Scope 3.3 for my PCI 5911 hi speed digitizer.

.

Could I " overwrite " the present Ni-Scope 2.1 or should I deinstall 2.1. en install 3.3 from scratch ?

Thanks for help ( couldn't find the answer in the archive ).

Peter.

Hi,

You can uninstall NI-Scope 2.1 and then install 3.3.  Installing NI-Scope 3.3 on top of NI-Scope 2.1 will not be a incremental update. It will be a complete replacement.

Thanks

Karsten,

Thanks.

Meanwhile I seem ( not sure .. ) to understand that Ni-Scope is part of Ni-Daq(mx).

Does this mean that I have to deinstall my present NiDaqmx 8.0 and reinstall NiDaqmx 8.60 before installing Ni-Scope 3.3 ?

If so, does MAX install automatically within installation of NiDaqmx ?

Thanks again,

Peter.

Hi Peter,

NI-Scope depends on NI-DAQmx for low level device detection and simulation. So when you upgrade to NI-Scope 3.3 NI-DAQmx will also be upgraded to the minimal version that is requered for NI-Scope, you can find this inforamtion in the readme file of NI-Scope.

MAX is part of all NI Driver software, thus also NI-Scope and NI-DAQmx. the MAX will also be upgraded to the minimum version required by the NI-Scope 3.3.

Hope this helps,

Thanks
