upgraded LV, code now unexecuteable

[Todd Worstell]

I had a working vi under LV 8.5 basic that used a 4351 temperature card.  I upgraded to LV Full 8.6 and now get multiple errors saying 4351 vi's can not be found.

Did you have any vis as addons?Right click replace and then show the current path

Hi there 

The device needs the "NI 435x instrument driver". Check if there's a new version of this driver that supports 8.6 If not check if there's a folder of the driver in

...\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.5\instr.lib\

of this driver. Copy this folder to the 8.6\instr.lib folder. But be careful with that!

I don't know what an "add on" vi is.

I checked in MAX.  The 2.5.2 driver for the 4531 is there as well as the DAQ Legacy driver 7.4.4.  I tried downloading these from ni.com and reinstalling them.  Still no luck.  I at least thought using LV 8.5 with my original vi would still work, but it gets the same errors as when using 8.6.  When in the block diagram, there is an icon for the 4531 with various functions.  But listing the errors, it says that some 4351 functions either can't be found or are not executeable.

Hey,

For the legacy (traditional) DAQ driver you can try to copy the following folders from your LV8.5 to the 8.6 if you have both on your system.

[LVDIR]\vi.lib\daq

[LVDIR]\examples\daq

[LVDIR]\help\lvdaq.chm

[LVDIR]\menus\default\daq

 And the following link is the instrument driver of the NI-4351, you might need to install both the trad. DAQ as well as the instrument driver:
