how to map a iak file to a aliase in a executable (from a installer)

[vgravel]

Hello,

I'm developing a system that is communicating with a cFP. The adresses of my cFP are in a configuration file (.ini).

Exemple :  pression-7*=cFP_131_132_33_190P\\cFP_131_132_33_190\\cFP-AIO-610 @3\\Input 3

I want to build a executable and a installer but the preblem is that when i run the executable on a computer without labview installed (run-time engine installed) it says that theres is no iak file associate with the aliase "cFP_131_132_33_190P". I know that aliases are mapped with iak files in the fpconfig.ini file but i don't no how the do it since LabVIEW is not installed on the others computers...

It would be very nice if iak files were invisible to the users.

By the way, why a aliase? why not a path to the iak files? This is a point that i'm missing....

Thanks a lot!!

Hello vgravel,

The .iak file holds the configuration data for a FieldPoint bank, generally, you use and modify the iak file through Measurement and Automation Explorer, which should be installed when you install the FieldPoint driver.
From your post, I was unclear on whether you had included your iak file in your executable.

Note:  you will need to use the same version of FieldPoint on the test machine as your development machine. 

Post again if you are still having trouble,
