Hello, I have a routine perfectly functional under Labview, where I collect data from multiple GPIB devices. All of them are connected via an USB port. When I create an installer, on the laptop with the Labview licence all works well. If I try to deploy my installer to another laptop, it just record data from 1 of the 4 GPIB devices. What am I doing wrong! Many thanks!

This is part of learning to program an executable program and all the fun that goes with it! You have the original MAX that works (Page 1) - The installer MAX (Page 2) only partially works. You need to think about your program. You have not included your program so all I can do is keep guessing about your problem. I am guessing that you did not add any error handling to your program? Being able to read program errors will really help you troubleshoot your problem. I will start at the beginning. What is different between page 1 and page 2? You say you can only read from GPIB 0 on the new install (page 2). But you can't read COM6 or GPIB23 on the new install (page 2). This is where error handling would really help. It would most likely tell you that the program is not able to read from those devices. Page 1 has COM6 and GPIB23 listed, Page 2 does not have a COM6 or GPIB23 listed. Remember that your program is looking at specific addresses for data. Since those addresses don't exist on the new setup it is not able to recieve any data from them. You have to make sure the same devices exists in both versions of MAX. Bryan

Thank you so very much! I have solved my problems by running the NI-Max as admin :-), then renamed the addresses to correspond to the ones in the Labview code and the installer now works beautiful! I am delighted! Thank you very much!!!!
