Vision Development Module installation

[Jeffrey_Oon]

Hi, 

I just installed a Labview community edition 2023 Q3 version. 1 year free license. Currently is working fine.

I need a Vision Development Module to support my Labview code.

Is there anybody know where to get a free license ( may be 1 year license) for vision Development Module ?

Is there any things i have to take care so that when i install Vision Development Module, Vision Development Module license will not overide Community edition license cause both software can't work anymore ?

thank you.

best regards.

I believe that you cannot install any modules on LabVIEW community edition.

VDM is a paid software. You cannot get a free license anywhere legally.

You can only use VDM .net for free.

Newer NI Vision Software Does Not Include .NET Support

GitHub - ni/vdm-dotnet: NI Vision Development Module for .NET

Hi, ZYOng

Thank you for your information.

What is the different VDM.net and VDM ?

Does VDM.net have same function and performance as VDM ?

best regards.

VDM.net is only an API for the VDM.

It is used if you program in .NET and what to use the VDM functions. 

You need VDM to be able to use VDM.net as far as I can read from the documentation.

You might only need the run-time license for the VDM when you use the .net API.
