Licensing an Executable Deployment

I've built an application using the KUKA Digimetrix library, and everything works great when in the LabVIEW Development environment.  Now when I build the executable, when it runs I get an error (1003 some VIs are broken).  I know that when the KUKA library is not licensed all the VIs are broken, so my question is how do I ensure that the library will run properly licensed on the windows PC the executable is deployed onto?  I know how to activate the license using the LabVIEW IDE, but how do you license the library when running in the LabVIEW RunTime engine?

Hello Nathan,

Guidelines to deploy the executable can be found here:

LabVIEW menu -> Help -> DigiMetrix -> Kuka Robotics Library -> DigiMetrix Robotics Library for Kuka -> Building and Deploying an Application

Briefly (for Windows):

  • Build an executable
  • Copy  executable to the target
  • Copy to the same location as executable on the target two dlls (skca32.dll and keylib32.dll for 32-bit app or skca64.dll and keylib64.dll for 64-bit app) – those dlls can be found in <LabVIEW installation folder>/resource
  • Copy to the same location as executable on the target a RUN-TIME license file – it can be found in <ProgramData folder>\DigiMetrix\Kuka Robotics Library\Run-Time License file\DM_KuRL_RUN-TIME.LF
  • Run the executable on the target as Administrator – it will request activation, provide the RUN-TIME license activation LicenseID and Passsword.

Development license can be converted to RUN-TIME and vice versa (just e-mail support@digimetrix.com).

Best Regards,

Svetlana Volkova
