Hi DEPutman, 

Thank you for alerting us to the fact that these codes do not work. I am going to pass this information along to our Web Services team and we will work on getting this sorted out.

Hi DEPutman, 

These codes now work. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Have a great day!

The updated links are to downloaders rather than to a version information document (note that the first link that has always worked links to a pdf file)

It is now August 2016 and this still has not been fixed. No list of drivers and versions, just mis-links to a web installer.

It was bad enough that you (NI) stopped listing versions on cards shipped with the DVDs, now we can't get version info on the net. This is causing problems with our maintenance of systems at some of our remote sites overseas. We can't verify that drivers are correct. Could someone fix this please?

Hi Michael,

The February 2015 device drivers can be found inside the Web-Based Installer. When you download the installer, you'll note that there are many separate pieces of software that you can install. If you enter a serial number, it will automatically select the products you have access to given the serial number. However you are also free to install any piece of software that comes with the Dev Suite when selecting to install for evaluation mode, including the device drivers for February 2015.

The RF device drivers seem to work as they should based on what I've tested. If you are curious about what is included with the Developer Suite, you can find the information listed in our help documents:

The date of our driversets are historically indicative of their versions. Generally speaking, the earlier release (e.g. February) corresponds to the X.5 driver or the most recent (SP1 if available) software of the prevous year's release. For example, the 2015 Developer Suite DS1 corresponds to LabVIEW 2014 SP1, DAQmx 14.5, etc. The second developer suite released (e.g. 2015 Developer Suite DS2), usually released around August, historically contains the year's new software set, e.g. LabVIEW 2015 and DAQmx 15.0, etc. for 2015 DS2. Their contents should also be available in a help document:

Finally, the readme of each driver should list the hardware and software compatibility. We try to keep our readmes up to date, and I would highly recommend looking through them in case you are unsure about compatibility.
