Where to update the VXI PNP drivers in Labview 8.6

[ChisAlex]

All,

I just started using Labview 8.6. Previously with Labview 7.1, I can download a VXI PNP driver from Agilent and then go to "tools/instrumentation/update VXI PNP drivers" to add the driver to the function palette. I am wondering where this function is in the new Labview 8.6. 

For the particular driver, I am using the hp816x. I downloaded as a .exe file from Agilent website. No relevant driver can be found on the NI instrument driver network.  

Please help me. Thanks so much!

Hello,

This functionality is found in a separate download, the LabVIEW Instrument Driver Import Wizard, found the LabVIEW Plug and Play section here : http://www.ni.com/devzone/idnet/development.htm

You will need to download and install this software, and it will add that functionality to whatever version of LabVIEW you install it to.
