Installing NI-XNET from CD

Hello everyone,

 

I received a CAN Card (PXI 8513) with an installation CD for XNET. The card is detected via MAX and I connected a external DVD drive via USB to my PXI system. 

After the autorun pops up I click 'Install', the Package Manager (?) starts and displays:

  • Gathering system information
  • Adding feeds

Then the message 'No operation to be performed' appears.

 

Why is the included CD not working? What does the package manager do? Do I need Internet connection? 

 

I found the driver link for NI XNET 19.x

https://www.ni.com/de-de/support/downloads/drivers/download.ni-xnet.html#329450

it is only the online installer. I would like to install XNET without connecting the PXI to the internet.

I downloaded the ISO and mounted it via WADrive ( a virtual drive generator).

 

Same result

NI Support sent me a custom installation file (basically a msi installer). The CAN Card and XNET are working now.
