Conversion errors from LabVIEW 7 to LabVIEW 17

Converting this project to run on windows 7 is my first time working with LabVIEW whatsoever.  Started off by simply copying the old test project to the new PC into a replica folder directory on the C drive.

 

  • Received error: "Call Library Function Node ... Contains unwired or bad terminal"

Visually compared old and new wiring and they both look fine.  Opened up the configure option on both systems and they look like they copied over correctly.

 

  • Also noticed that I need to run this project in 32-bit LabVIEW (supposedly because of some of our dlls) and haven't found a way to make that the default when opening up my .vi files
  • Was able to copy my old Telnet files from the old LabVIEW addons into the new version as proposed on another thread and it squelched my errors, but until i progress further I'm not positive that will actually work.
  • No idea what other errors will show up or other steps to take to ensure my code runs in the new OS and LabVIEW version (aside from getting proper device drivers)

It seems that there is nothing wired to the "dev_desc" input? (The string input, pink abc in the middle)

Thank you. I verified that the code on the old machine has the same (and only 1) pink wire running from abc to "dev_desc"  The test project still runs with no errors on the old machine.  I will retry in the new version.

After fixing the wire so that it runs from abc (instead of U32) to dev_desc it still has the same error.  Am I to assume that those contact points simply refer to the Call Library Function > configuration menu > parameters tab > parameter data type?  Regardless, dev_desc leads to no other contact points on the original code version.

It will be easier for someone to help if you attach your actual code.

 

Yes, the nodes refer to the parameters inside the Call Library Function. I think there should be something wired TO dev_desc, not from.
