RAD asks to convert lvappimg files

Solved!
Go to solution

I am using RAD 16.0.

I am trying to direct the application images folder of RAD at my image folders by selecting Settings and inputting the folder location. But no applications image is shown in the image list on the right-hand side of RAD window. My images were created with InsightCM 2.0. RAD asks to convert the current images. I wonder what this conversion is about? Does it affect the function of the images?

Thank you.

Hi levan8421,

 

This is actually explained fairly well here: Replication and Deployment (RAD) Utility (Look for the section labeled "Updating RTAD 2.x and RAD 3.x Images for Compatibility with the RAD Utility" for information specific to your question).

You can inspect the source code here:

http://ftp.ni.com/pub/gdc/epd/rad_16_0_source.zip


Search for rad_ConvertImageFiles.vi

 

It appears to just update the version number in the config file in the .lvappimg leaving the RT files untouched.
