No Data from Network Devices using a Built Application on a Deployment PC

Solved!
Go to solution

I've been searching the forums for an answer to my problem, but I think it's finally time to ask for help.

 

I have developed a LabVIEW program for gathering numerical data from 2 individual network analyzers (Anritsu MS46XXX Series) connected over tcp/ip.  Using the application builder, I created a 64-bit application of the program which runs without issue on my main PC where the program was originally built.  The application starts up with the GUI, and all sub-Vis run doing the necessary math and manipulations to make the data readable.  The program then creates a folder to store the data into found on our server once testing is complete. 

However, when I created an installer and opened it on what will be our deployment PCs (also 64-bit) I ran into my problem.  The program installs with the drivers I have assigned it, and the application is able to open and run, but when attempting to collect data there is no communication to either analyzer.  Typically when remote connection is made to one, all user input is disabled on the analyzer's software and the buttons become gray.  This does not happen when using the application on my deployment PC.  

 

In the "Additional Installers" menu for building the installer, I have the following selected (all of which should match the version of LabVIEW being used):

  • NI-VISA Runtime & Configuration Support
  • NI-Serial Runtime & Configuration
  • NI-488.2 Runtime & Configuration Support
  • NI Variable Engine
  • NI Measurement & Automation Explorer
  • NI LabVIEW Runtime 2021

 

Is there something I have forgotten to include for the installer, or perhaps something in my program preventing me from letting the application run on external devices?

 

Thank you in advance for the help and I'm looking forward to get this finally running how it should be!

Could be a windows firewall issues. Is the application allows to access the network?

From what I can tell, it should have full access to both our network and server.  The application connects to both analyzers as network devices and I can run the IDN SCPI command for each.  Data is also able to be saved on our server.  However using it on any other PC is where the issue arises.  Is there another place where I would be able to verify this?
