Using SystemLink to install low-level drivers?

[JKSH]

Hello,

I've been playing around with the Repository Manager, and I've successfully used the Systems Manager to install and upgrade Application Software packages.

Are there any plans to lets users install lower-level software (e.g. VISA) through SystemLink? (I understand that we can't install/uninstall the SystemLink client software through SystemLink itself)

Yes, SystemLink 17.5 is set to release in a month or so and it will make it a lot easier to deploy drivers like NI-VISA and DAQmx.  

In the meantime, you can do it by replicating a feed from ni.com like http://download.ni.com/support/nipkg/products/ni-visa/17.0/released to your local repository manager or just add the feed directly to the target from the Feeds tab on the Software view.
