Upgrading to LV 8.0 with PDA module

[Martin Fierz]

I have been using LV 7.1 and the PDA module; and while I'm quite happy with it, I would still like to upgrade to LV8. However, installing LV 7.1 with the PDA module was a real pain-in-the-*** - it takes a lot of time until you have everything installed in the correct order.

Therefore I am now wondering whether I can upgrade to LV8 without any further problems - will everything (including the PDA module) still work, or do I have to reinstall everything in the correct order?

cheers

Hello,
LabVIEW 8 und LabVIEW 8 PDA Modul are full installer.

Labview 7.1 PDA has other requirements to the additional software (e.g. eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 is required in SP 4 or later) --> to install LV 8 PDA is not so easy.
you must choose the right way of installation.
here a link with Information about PDA Module (Requirements on Software)
