Missing DLL Files

Solved!
Go to solution

I have a LabVIEW application which deals with massive data transmission between an oven and the computer as well as an XY linear stage and the computer. When I made a stand-alone executive file and transferred the application to the computer where the application will be used, I encountered missing DLL file errors. Assuming it was only a couple of DLL files, I tries manually adding them from the source computer to the destination, but the errors keep coming.

I figured there must be an easier way to fix the issue, so I searched online and it seems creating an installer file which installs LabVIEW Runtime files as well as NI-DAQmx Runtime and NI-DAQmx MAX Configuration Support, it will fix the problem. However, files for the NI-DAQmx Runtime and NI-DAQmx MAX Configuration Support do not exist on my computer. A quick search lead me to find the runtime files and after downloading from NI.COM and installation, things are OK. Now, I am trying to find the NI-DAQmx MAX Configuration Support files to add to my installer, but I can't find an exact match. Can anyone please give me a hint where I can find them?

Because the destination computer is for an industry customer, we're not allowed to install our version of LabVIEW on that. That's why I am taking this route.

Exporting the hardware configuration is an option in the installer or from MAX. You create it first and then you include it when building the installer.

Thanks for the reply. I have found a file that may help after installing. I will try that in the morning. But just in case and for you to know, I am only communicating with my devices through serial port and NI-DAQ USB-6008 module.

I am not very sure how to create hardware configuration files to export to the other computer.

Thanks again!

You didn't mention serial before. You will of course need NI-VISA runtime and if you are using a USB-RS232 converter, it's driver.

Delivering a program to a customer and never used LabVIEW before?

I have indeed used LabVIEW before, but this is the first time we're supposed to put an aplication on a computer on which we're not permitted to install LabVIEW.

By installing the DAQmx and VISA drivers while the DAQ was already conected to the USB port, the job was done!
