use NI LabView and LabView RT with third party PXI chassis

[zalmay]

I want to use NI LabView and LabView RT, some PXI chassis of N.I and
some PXI chassis of Third Party( not N.I ) for diversity, How I will Install

Pharlap ETS ( LabView RT ) on those third party PXI's.

More simply

Third party PXI chassis and controllers support LabView RT or not?

Note: Mark Andre Hary mark@SensingSystems.com of Sensing Systems LLC answer to this question as:

"You can't.  I think NI bought Pharlap, and they do not offer board support packages (BSPs) for non-NI PXI controllers.  There is no way to get LabVIEW-RT running on a controller not purchased from NI.  You will have to use a standard RTOS like Linux,VxWorks, or QNX.

As described in the web links below, the only way to run LabVIEW Real-Time for ETS on a third-party system would be to follow the procedure for desktop PC computers. You may find that your third party PXI controller may meet the requirements listed in the below link and you will be able to run Real-Time on the controller. If you decide to do this, you will need to purchase the LabVIEW Real-Time Desktop Deployment license (also linked below). After purchasing the deployment license, you will be sent boot disks that will install the real-time OS onto your system. There is no need to purchase Pharlap ETS from Ardence directly.

Instead of using LabVIEW Real-Time for ETS, you could use LabVIEW Real-Time for RTX instead. This system allows you to run Windows and the Ardence Real-Time eXtensions (RTX) real-time kernel concurrently on one machine. Currently device support for LabVIEW RT for RTX systems is limited to RIO devices.

I hope this answers your question.

To expand briefly on Kristi's post-

If you do choose to use RTX you may be interested to know that many M Series multi-function DAQ boards and some Analog Output boards are now supported under RTX with the NI-DAQmx Base 1.5.1 driver for RTX .

Hopefully this helps-
