Raspberry Pi 5 not connecting withLabVIEW

Hi,

I am currently trying to connect a raspberry pi 5 to the Community 2025 version of LabView. I have been unable to install any version on to the Pi and at first it was connected, but now it is saying the "Unknown is not a supported Linx target". I have no idea what is happening and why there is no info on how to fix these issues. All the things I look up say that Raspberry Pi 5s should be supported by LabView. If anyone could help me, I would gladly appreciate it. The following images are what my LabView is showing. before hitting connect.before hitting connect.After hitting connect.After hitting connect.This is what the installation window looks like.This is what the installation window looks like.

I haven't tried what you're doing exactly, but a couple thoughts- first, if it worked once originally, try reflashing the OS to the SD card. It's possible yours got corrupted somehow.

 

Also, check out this article:

It's in German, but Chrome can translate it to English. The author goes through a setup that wouldn't connect correctly.

Try addressing it by IP address instead of the name. Something about Windows networking.

I was unable to install the runtime on my RPI (though mine is an RPI 3B+) with Debian Bookworm (32-bit) via the Target Configuration utility in LabVIEW 2025 CE.


I finally was able to just take the Target Configuration utility completely out of the picture, and do an install manually on the PI.  I downloaded the correct deb package from https://feeds.labviewmakerhub.com/debian/binary/ via "wget" on the PI itself, and then installed it via "apt"


1.) ssh into the target
2.) do command "wget https://feeds.labviewmakerhub.com/debian/binary/lvrt25-schroot_25.1.0-1.deb"
3.) from where file downloaded to (same directory), do command "sudo apt install ./lvrt25-schroot_25.1.0-1.deb".  I got a wierd error at the end, something about permission denied, even though I think it installed, but I did step #4 anyways.
4.) do command "sudo dpkg -i ./lvrt25-schroot_25.1.0-1.deb", and that completed without any errors.
5.) do command "sudo systemctl restart labview.service"
6.) do command "sudo systemctl status labview.service" - you should see the service is active.
7.) then try to connect to the target via a LabVIEW project.  I connected to the RPI via its IP address - not sure that makes any difference or not via hostname.

So do you have a question, or are you summarizing for us so we can see that you were successful?

 

Thanks.
