CF-6004 Driver installation

[Rafless]

I NEED TO INSTALL THE DRIVER TO USE THE CF-6004 IN A PDA, BUT EVERYTIME I TRY TO INSTALL IT, WINDOWS DISPLAYS AN ERROR MESSAGE, SHOWN IN THE IMAGE ATTACHED, THAT SAYS "NI DAQmx Base 1.0.1 DOES NOT SUPPORT THE CONNECTED DEVICE TYPE II. APPLICATION MANAGHER WILL MAKE THE APPLICATION AVAILABLE FOR INSTALLATION WHEN A SUPPOPRTED DEVICE IS CONECTED.

I'M USING THE MICROSOFT ACTIVESYNC 4.1, LabVIEW PDA module 7.1, THE PDA IS A POCKETPC2003 DEVICE, WITH WINDOWS CE 4.2 .NET AS THE OPERATING SYSTEM AND THE DEVICE IS THE "INTRINSYC INTEL 2700G MULTIMEDIA ACCELEATOR REFERENCE SYSTEM (CARBONADO)"

I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM, PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME

Rafless,

Thank you for contacting National Instruments. An alternate way of installing the DAQmx Base drivers on your PDA is to copy the file daqmxb.sa.CAB from

C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-DAQmx Base\Pocket PC\daqmxb.sa.CAB

on the PC to the same location on the PDA. If you need to reinstall the driver, first remove NI-DAQmx Base using the built-in Remove Programs functionality on the PDA and then run the above file.

Thank you, but i did that thing of copying the file and running it fromn the PDA but it's still not working the PDA displays a dialog that says "the application cannot run on this device type. please install the application specific to the devicee type"

Rafa.

Rafa,

Are you able to do the following steps? If not, let me know what problems you encounter and when. This information is taken from the LabVIEW PDA User Manual (Version 7.1).

On the development PC, select a Pocket PC 2003 device from the Execution Target pull-down menu (Operate>>Switch Execution Target) to build VIs for a Pocket PC 2003 device. The Execution Target pull-down menu lists each Pocket PC 2003 device that is connected to the host computer and a generic Pocket PC 2003 (Default Device) option.

After you develop the VI on the host computer, you build the PDA VI into a PDA application by clicking the Run button if you configure the Run button to build the PDA VI into a PDA application. You also can select Tools»Build for PDA. The Build PDA Application dialog box appears.

Note: The Tools»Build for PDA menu item is disabled when you select LabVIEW for Windows or any other non-PDA target as the execution target.

The PDA Module builds the block diagram code into an executable PDA VI you can run on the PDA target. On Pocket PC 2003, PDA VIs are .exe files. You then download the PDA application to the PDA device by selecting Operate»Download Application or by clicking the Run button. You also can use the software the PDA device provides to download a PDA application to a PDA device as you do any other PDA application.

specifies certain system requirements for the use of ActiveSync 4.1. It is only recently that support for Windows Mobile 2003 has been added. That's the first issue I see, and on the surface it seems that would prevent program transfer to the device. That is, an older download of ActiveSync 4.1 might not work at all with a Windows Mobile 2003 device.

Raffles, have you followed the instructions in post #4 to this thread?
