SysMon API

[Paul_Knight_Lockheed_Mart]

I am trying to install the NISysMon API using the NI System Monitor Download link found in the knowledge base article here:

http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/C67D5C1D64E77E1D862575780060CFCF

In the readme file I don't see CVI as a supported interface and when I load the driver, all that is loaded is the LabView side.

I get no NISysMon.h file loaded.

Does the installer load nisysmon.h?

Should I try re-installing?

The installer is going to automatically bring in the .h and the .dll file.  My .h file is located at C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Shared\ExternalCompilerSupport\C\include and my niSysMon.dll is located at C:\Windows\System32.

Jesse,

I tried two different computers and neither got the .h file when I used the installer.

Hi Paul,

I tried out the installer on a clean machine and it worked fine.

I then deleted the file, I had to uninstall every thing that that installer put on the computer to get it to put the file back in there. 

One thing that did occur to me is that if you are using a 64 bit OS, then you will have to look at C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\Shared\ExternalCompilerSupport\C\include for the .h file. 

As long as niSysMon.dll is in C:\Windows\System32, then you can place the .h file I am attaching in the program files directory, and it should work.

That worked.

Thanks.

Can not find nisysmon.dll in the system32 dir.

Where can I get this file?

[Paul_Knight_Lockheed_Mart]

My dll is in System32 directory.
