application builder problem

[Lumanova]

hello everyone,

I have created an Application (.exe) for a Labview project.

But when I run it on another computer, I cannot choose the port number. And I tried to change the port number to const. and it still doesn't work. There is no error message.

I have Labview 8.5 base Development system.

Thanks for any help.

Hi Mike,

The Port Number in my program, which to communication with a laserdiode driver.  

With the application I cannot choose it.

Thanks.

Hi Lumanova,

which typ of communication do you use? Can you show some code?

Hi Mike,

i use the VISA functions to communicate. It works fine in labview and also with the application on my computer. Only when i use the application an another computer, it does't work.

Hi Lumanova,

are you sure the other pc has one of the port you use? Can you see some Ports (COM or LPT) in MAX (Measurement and Automation Explorer) on the other PC?

hi Mike,

I don't install MAX or Labview on the other PC. That' s why I use Application.

I am sure the PC has the Port. It works with hyperterminal.  I think it must be something wrong with the application.

Hi Lumanova,

i´m not sure, because you said that the application run fine on your pc, also as application. If you create a Visa Control, can you select a port on the other pc? Do you use dynamical calls in your application?

hi Mike,

yes, the application runs on my pc. The only difference is that I install the Labview Program on my PC and on the other one only the Labview RuntimeEngine. I don't know if I do something wrong by create the Application or must I install something more on the other PC.

Hi Lumanova,

i guess you need the NI-Visa Runtime on the other PC. Here is a link

for you.
