Yokogawa driver directory structure

[njacacia]

We have a Yokogawa Frame Controller AQ2211 and I downloaded YKAQ2201.zip from their website.

We also have the AQ2200-421 module which is in the frame, and I downloaded YKAQ2200-421.zip from their website.

The two zip files unzip into the following directory structure:

    --- YKAQ2200-421   [this is a directory]

        --- YKAQ2200-421   [this is a directory with 5 files]

            actstat.mnu

            applic.mnu

            config.mnu

            data.mnu

            dir.mnu

            util.mnu

        --- YKAQ2201    [this is a directory with 1 file]

            YKA2200-421.llb

    --- YKAQ2201       [this is a directory]

        --- YKAQ2201        [this is a directory with 7 files]

            _YKAQ2201.llb

            actstat.mnu

            applic.mnu

            config.mnu

            data.mnu

            util.mnu

            YKAQ2201.llb

I placed the directories as-is into LabVIEW's instr.lib, but I am not able to access the VIs inside the LLBs.  These drivers are for LabVIEW 2010, and I am using LabVIEW 2012.

I had read that there was change from 2010 to 2012 with regards to instrument drivers.

I am not sure how to re-arrange the directories.

Yokogawa claims that their drivers are right. I have tried re-arranging the directories, but nothing I tried has worked.

I figured out what was the problem.

The Yokogawa drivers did not like being inside a directory Yokogawa that was created under instr.lib

Final directory structure:

C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2012\instr.lib\

    --- YKAQ2200-421   [this is a directory]

        actstat.mnu

        applic.mnu

        config.mnu

        data.mnu

        dir.mnu

        util.mnu

    --- YKAQ2201       [this is a directory]

        _YKAQ2201.llb

        actstat.mnu

        applic.mnu

        config.mnu

        data.mnu

        util.mnu

        YKAQ2201.llb

        YKA2200-421.llb
