NI Vision Assistant trial version doesn't allow LabView code generation

[manyam]

Hi,

I am trying to evaluate NI Vision Assitant 8.5. When I attempted "Create LabView VI..." available in the 'tools' menus I get an error message indicating that it needs LabView 7.1 or higher and IMAQ Vision 8.2.1 or higher. As I already have necessary LabView versions I downloaded IMAQ Vision 8.2.1 from NI web site but it appears IMAQ is not availabe for trial. It asks for an activation code which I dont have. Are there any trial codes availabe for NI IMAQ Vision 8.2.1 or higher?

Thanks

Hi manyam,

NI IMAQ Vision (I presume you mean NI Vision Acquisition Software) contains three drivers (IMAQ, IMAQdx, and IMAQ I/O), only one of which requires a license (IMAQdx). You should be able to evaluate NI Vision Acquisition Software for 30 days by skipping the activation when it prompts. Was this option available?
