Installing LV7.0 on a PC with LV6.0 already installed

I am using a PC with LV6.0 and a 6025E DAQ card installed in 2001. I want to use LV7.0 sometimes and LV6.0 other times. Would installing LV7.0 on the PC lead to problems when I want to RUN something in LV6.0? Would installing LV7.0 force me to reinstall the 6025E DAQ card? I am not an expert in computers so would everything end up in a mess?

Hi labview1958,
A driver is simply the low-level code that communicates either directly to your hardware (i.e. NI-DAQ and DAQmx) or directly to other lower-level drivers (i.e. NI-VISA). All external hardware needs a driver for the computer to be able to work. You can think of a driver as a "dictionary" that is necessary for the computer to "talk" to the hardware, since they don't speak the same "language".
The type of driver you need for the NI 6025E DAQ board is called NI-DAQ. There are many different versions available for free download on our Drivers and Updates site. The latest driver that supports both LabVIEW 6i (6.0) and 7.0 is called NI-DAQ 7.1. You can download it from this location. Before installing the new driver, shut down your machine and take out the DAQ board. Then restart the machine. I would also recommend that uninstall the existing driver by going to the Windows "Start >> Control Panel >> Add or Remove Programs" and then choose to uninstall any version of NI-DAQ that already shows up there. It might be hiding under the "National Instruments Software" item. After this, you can install NI-DAQ 7.1. After installing NI-DAQ 7.1, shutdown the machine, insert the DAQ board and then restart the machine. Your machine should now find the new hardware (the DAQ board).
When installing NI-DAQ 7.1, it will by default install support for the versions of LabVIEW on your machine; therefore you should be able to use the DAQ VIs in both LabVIEW 6i and 7.0 after the install. In LabVIEW 7.0, you will see an additional palette called DAQmx. This is our new great version of DAQ VIs, but since they are not supported for any version of LabVIEW before 7.0, you will have to use the other DAQ VIs if you want consistency between your LabVIEW 6i and 6.0 code.
Please let me know if this was of any help, or if I just made you more confused, thanks.
Have fun!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Most of the applications compatible with Lion are also compatible with Mountain Lion, so you shouldn't have any problem. Mountain Lion supports the latest update for Parallels 7 and 8, so if you haven't got one of these versions, you should upgrade it before upgrading Mac OS X. That application uses extensions, so it may cause kernel panics

    The iOS update us free so I would get the less expensive one.
    If you are getting a used one make sure this is done before you purchase it. Otherwise it may still have the Activatin Lock on

    Welcome to the Support Communities. It's unlikely that anyone here knows how long it will be until Macs with Mountain Lion installed appear in the stores near you. If you prefer not to wait, consider buying a MacBook Air now and upgrade to Mountain Lion for free — see under "Qualifying purchases on or after July 26, 2012" here:

    Hi Kamalakar
    I think this problem happens due to wrong content of SDMKIT.JAR - incorrect crypto SDA is deployed.I dont know the installation procedure you followed because normally this error wont come.
    I would rather suggest a work around seeing your problem
    <b>Edit the keydb.xml exchanging [ERROR] with [OK]</b>
    Follow the above step and restart your installation.

    FF Less stable than IE. Numerous crashes, the latest quirk is that it will open a new window with a website already working on and NONE of the iterations of FF work. Have to reboot computer because can't even exit FF. Fix it or on to Chrome.

    '''''"a new FF iteration"'''''
    No such thing. All Firefox windows and tabs run in a single '''firefox.exe''' process, unlike IE which has a separate process for each window, or Chrome which opens a new process for each tab.
    As far as the Firefox SafeMode, you can't open it when Firefox is running ''(unless you open a separate Profile purposely)'', if you try all you will get is another window in the "regular mode".
    You're not going to be able to discover the cause of your problem if you're unwilling to follow established troubleshooting procedures, regardless of how intermittent the fault occurs. I wouldn't be surprised of you have an add-on installed which is causing that problem.
    Another course of action would be to create a new Profile, which is like starting from scratch with a completely new Firefox installation. <br />

  • Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': The definition specifies a claim provider with a name already in use.

    Hi,
    When i am trying to deploy sharepoint 2010 application in VS 2010, i am getting the below error:
    "Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': The definition specifies a claim provider with a name already in use."
    How to fix this?
    Thank you

    You can use:
    $provider = Get-SPClaimProvider | where {$_.DisplayName -eq "Provider DisplayName"}
    $mgr = Get-SPClaimProviderManager
    $mgr.ClaimProviders.Remove($prov)
    $mgr.Update()

  • Spotlight/Finder can't find a file, yet when I search the timecapsule for they find it. If I try to restore the file I get "file with that name already exists...." What is wrong?

    I was trying to find a file (iTunes Backup). When using finder/Spotlight they couldn't find the file.
    I then opened up my timecapsule and searched for the file....tick-a-de-da it found it in yesterdays backup. I attempted to restore the file and got the prompt "A file with that name already exists in this location, would you like to keep both, replace the file or cancel the request.
    So if the file is there why can't spotlight/finder find the file??
    If it helps I get this from the terminal when checking if indexing was enabled.

    Hi Danielle,
    Is there any possibilty that some of your files (a VI or DLL?) have been moved, renamed, or deleted? Also, what version of LabVIEW are you using and are you using any .NET DLLs? Another option to consider would involve VISA or DAQmx property nodes. Are you using any of these property nodes in your code? Here is a KnowledgeBase article to describe more about the VISA and DAQmx property nodes in a source distribution:

  • API040 Mapping with name table1 already exists

    Hi,
    In a OWB 10.2.0.1 I did a "create and bind" and got a message "API0408: Mapping with name table_1 already exists", even though it does not. I deleted the mapping and started over again and go the same message. I veified the table does not exist.
    Any help is appreciated!

    You did create and bind on table in mapping and got this message.
    All I get is API0408: Table object with name table1 already exists. witch makes sense if table exists, but you got message that mapping already exists.
    Can you try this again with another table name, and please check if you are looking for the table that you get error for, in the right scheme.
    thanks

  • Load Leopard on a New Hard Drive with Windows XP already loaded

    How can I load a new, fresh Leopard operating system on a new hard drive, with Windows XP already loaded and working on it's own independent hard drive via bootcamp beta. I have been using Tiger on it's own drive and wish to discontinue Tiger and move to Leopard without reloading windows. Can I just put in a new drive, and load Leopard with the Windows drive in place?
    Please, any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Malcolm:
    Thanks so much for replying to my question! I am new to MAC and have Tiger and Windows XP on separate drives. I will be removing the drive with Tiger and putting in a new drive to load Leopard and I wondered how that would effect accessing Windows XP since the Windows drive will remain in the system. Is there anything I need to do with bootcamp, since Windows was loaded using the Beta version of bootcamp, and bootcamp icon currently shows in the Windows XP taskbar. Tiger was pre-loaded when the computer was purchased. In fact I had to backdate the beta bootcamp version in order to get it to work. I hope this is not asking too much, but I wondered if there would any problem with Windows after the Leopard load.
    THANKS IN ADVANCE!!

  • Error message: "conflicts with a path already in use"

    I am trying to establish through Contribute version 2's
    Connection Wizard a new connection to www.charlesfigley.com. After
    I enter this web address and hit "next >" I receive the
    following:
    Network paths can’t overlap
    The network path you have entered conflicts with a path
    already in use by one of your website connections. If you need to
    access this site at a higher level, edit the path of your existing
    connection.
    You cannot create a connection to a subfolder using this
    network path.
    I have checked with GoDaddy and they can find nothing on
    their end to account for such a conflict. Can you help solve this
    mystery? Thanks to anyone who reads this.
    Thanks,
    Charles

    I do not know Contribute 2, but what I do know that in later
    versions of the program, this message means that you have another
    connection in Contribute pointing to the same webaddress.
    Check this by doing the following:
    1. in the main menu go to Edit>My Connections
    2. check all connections there to find the path you described
    3. delete or adjust this connection

  • HT204370 My movies' audio isnt 5.1 as the description says. when I check out their info it says they are 2 channel. I have tried with two movies already and the audio description said Dolby 5.1

    My movies' audio isnt 5.1 as the description says. when I check out their info it says they are 2 channel. I have tried with two movies already and the audio description said Dolby 5.1

    Actually, try this instead. On the apple tv, under settings > Audio > Dolby digital
    Change it From AUTO (default) to ON
    That worked for me. All my eyetv encodes have stereo and 5.1 tracks. For some reason the auto option forces stereo. Setting it to ON forces the 5.1.
    Everything sounds nice again! It's just stupid that apple puts AUTO for the default and that setting results in stereo not 5.1.
