Hello.
I'm having difficulties with the Custom device for the Pickering 40-925 PXI card.
I have the Pickering 40-925-5/16 card and I'm using the custom Device prebuild on my Veristand 2011, but in deploying I get this error:
... • Files successfully deployed to the targets. • Starting deployment group 1... * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The VeriStand Gateway encountered an error while deploying the System Definition file.

I made a brand new Custom Device but the result doesn't change!
I've noticed that the NI custom device had 10 channels while my card has just 5 channels, that's why I made Experimentation on new Custom Devices.
Drivers for the 40-925-5/16 are installed into the PXI system.
Has anyone some experience with this device?
Thank you very much!

Hello David,
This error is occurring because the custom device is missing a dependency on the deployment target.
The pickering dll ( I thinkpipx40_32.dll) that is installed on the host machine as part of the Pickering Driver also must be installed on the target. To resolve this error, transfer this dll from the C:\Program Files\IVI Foundation\VISA\WinNT\Bin directory on the host to the C:\ni-rt\system\ directory on the target.
Refer to Pickering’s website for additional instructions on properly installing the Pickering driver on the target.
Saluti!

WOW!
Thank you Antonios. Now it's deploying correclty on the target"
Actually I followed the pickering instruction for installation but (if I'm not wrong) It was said to transfer only the *.inf files.
Still thank's

As of today... the instructions are STILL wrong. They say only to move the .inf files... This cost me days of banging my head against the wall... thanks so much for this thread!!!
