creating installer and using measurement computing hardware

[metzler]

I have a test fixture I have created and it will be going to a vendor soon, to test a pc board they make for us.  The hardware I used was USB-1208LS from Measurment Computing. 

I have created the installer for the lv runtime engine.  After creating a executable file, the VI runs on the (non-lv) computer, but I think it will not run the usb hardware because the driver is not present.  Is there a way I can include the drive with the executable or the installer so that this hardware will run correctly?

Hi metzler,

While I don't think the Measurement Computing software can be included in the additional installers section of the installer build properties, you can run an executable after the installer runs automatically. By specifying the file that you used to install the driver on the development machine, you can start the install process automatically after runtime installer you've built runs.

The help file that addresses this is available here. As pictured above, the option is in the advanced tab of the installer build.

I hope this helps!
