How to install new OS on cRIO

[esplu88]

Hi,

I've compiled a DLL file from simulationX and I want to run it on my cRIO 9075. However, I can't run the DLL file because my OS(VxWorks) is not compatible with DLL files. Is there any way to install Phar lap OS on my cRIO so that I can run the DLL file?

Thanks in advance

I'd like to keep myself updated in this topic because I'm having the same problem as yours. My OS isn't also compatible with the DLL files. I hope someone can help out. It's already been days since I'm looking for a solution.

Most cRIO targets use VxWorks operating system. You can see an index here: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/35F1FD98520D6E0E8625783A005AF557

You cannot change operating systems.

If you need to execute non LabView code on VxWorks, you must compile a .out file instead of a .dll file. If you're using an application, like SimulationX, that produces only DLL files, contact the manufacturer to see if they can produce source code or .out files instead.
