Remote debugger gives error about not supporting this version

I have LabWindows/CVI 8.0.1 (356) on a Windows 7 machine and I'm trying to remotely debug a product on a Windows XP machine.  The product is a DLL called by TestStand sequences.  TestStand is version 2.0.1f1.  When trying to connect, I receive the following error message ( see attachment ) after the debugger machine sees TestStand was launched on the debugee machine.  What does this mean?  Thanks.

Hi Grasshopper,

 

There is a document which goes over the LabWindows/CVI remote debugging set up in detail.  You can locate this document at the following URL: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/3384/en .  It is possible there is a configuration step you are missing.  

 

In addition to looking over that document, can you give me more information about your system?  I would specifically like to know what software is installed on each computer.  I would like to know the versions of the software installed on each computer.

 

Thank you,

I've been through the link you sent and I think I'm doing everything as stated.  Attached are the software lists.

Hi Grasshopper,

 

This problem is possibly occurring because your LabWindows/CVI Run-Time Engine is newer than your version of LabWindows/CVI Development System.  Please refer to the following forum thread which mentions a similar problem with remote debugging:  http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabWindows-CVI/Remote-Debug-problem-with-CVI-Runtime-Versions/m-p/2067462 .

 

To correct this problem, you must make the version of your Run-Time Engine (RTE) the same as or earlier than the version of your Development System.  You can either do this by upgrading LabWindows/CVI to a newer version, or by uninstalling the RTE on your debugger/debugee, and then installing the RTE corresponding to your Development System on both machines.

 

Please let me know after completing this step whether you encounter any further errors.

 

Warm Regards,
