NI Setup for simple driver?

Hello,

first excuse me as I don't find a good board to post this general question!

 

I've got the NI USB-6051 device but I can't find the pure driver for Windows! I want to do a SMALL silent setup (maybe a different one for x86/x64) with with just the sys driver and the additionally needed NICAIU.dll. How do I extract this niem* stuff from the whole setup?

 

Thanks in advance

There are not drivers for individual devices. When you deploy, you have the option of installing the much smaller runtime or runtime with configuration support. DAQmx Base is another option.

Yes I thought so. But I need to slim the 2.8GB from the NI DVD down to a small installer which silently installs the driver and the support for AnsiC.

I found the article "Automating the Installation of National Instruments Software - NI Installers Version 2.4x and Previous".

 

There within a "install.txt" the [Features] section tells which ones to install.

 

What I don't know is:

1. What do I need to write there for the AnsiC support (is this DAQmx core ??)

2. which folders are needed from the DVD?

You did not provide the link to the article so I can't comment on it. The core or runtime does not include language support.

I'm more familiar with LabVIEW and I don't know the name for the c language support, sorry. Hopefully someone else will provide that information.
