Runtime Error while installing NI FBus Software on Laptop with Win7/64bit

[Sushkatta]

Hi Martijn,

FBus(Comminications Manager, Configurator and Monitor) are successfully installed in my laptop. But they are still in evaluation period. Hence I am not able to use 'Ethernet' option to connect to FBUS. I have the registered version of the same in CD. But using that I was not able to install it in my laptop. Can i registered these produts using the CD key i have? Please let me know about this. My entire work depends on this connection!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks & Regards,

Sushruth.

Dear Sushruth,

First of all; you will need your software serial number (which has 2 letters and 5 numbers like  A00A00000) If your laptop is connected to the internet you can use the NI license manager to activate this product (start => programs => National Instruments => NI license manager); rightclick the product in the software tree and chose activate and follow the instructions for automatic activation.

If you don't have an internet connection on that PC, please get the computer ID from that PC (which can be found in the very same NI license manager) and go to ni.com/activate.

Best regards,

Dear Martijn,

I had installed NI FBUS 4.1 version since I was not able to install 4.0 version due to the error we had discussed earlier(runtime error on windows 7). But when I am trying to activate it, I am only able to ativate NI FBUS 4.0 version. This is not what I need. Can you please help me out on this issu?. Should KEMA buy a new software version of 4.1 just to run it on Windows 7? This isreally absurd. I really need this urgently. 

Looking forward to your reply,

Sushruth.
