Labview Runtime Engine installation problem with OSX

I tried to load the LabView Runtime 7.0 Engine for Mac OSX Says it's installing in my Applications folder and seems to be downloading the files. However, nothing is in the Application folder (and nowhere else on the HD). If I try to run a vi, it can't locate the program. If I try to reinstall, it says the files are already there. Can someone please help me with this problem?

I suspect the runtime is in a folder called National Instruments. You
might just do a Finder Search for that folder or for LabVIEW and see
what shows up. If you logged out and back in again between installation
and execution, it could be a permission problem.

Labview runtime engine plugin problem in Mac OS X

Hi:
We have just recently acquired a macBook Pro and am trying to test some instrumentation modules we have previously developed online for Circuit Theory courses on the MAc platform.
These VI's are installed on lab view server and we have no difficulty accessing them in Windows XP or Vista from a browser either Firefox or IE. Of course the latest version of runtime engine is installed on the pc prior to accessing the vi using remote panel and secondly we have to disable any virus protection software.
I have also installed the 8.5 version of LV runtime engine on the macbook with Leopard 10.5.x OS. I can see the LV plugin with the proper version in the Installed plug in check for the Safari browser. But every time the Remote panel is accessed I get a missing plugin message.
Here is the message:
Safari cannot find the Internet plug-in.
The page “Blackboard Academic Suite” has content of MIME type “application/x-labviewrpvi82”, but you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type. A plug-in should be available on this page:
http://digital.ni.com/express.nsf/express?openagent&code=exck2m&
Do you want to open the page?
The page it suggests is the NI site for the plugin download?
I am really in a corner and donot know what I am doing is wrong? Any help will be appreciated?
Vishnu

I'm not a Mac expert, but it sounds like you are missing the LabVIEW Browser Plugin which is necessary to view remote front panels. That plugin installs with the LabVIEW runtime engine which you can find here. I don't think Safari requires any extra configuration to work with the plugin but it might... let us know if installing the runtime engine doesn't resolve the problem.

Profibus-Connection with NI LabVIEW Runtime-engine

Hi,
I have a Profibus network running in our porduction lane.
Now we want to report several states of this production continously.
Therefore I want to connect a desktop-pc via profibus to the PLC. But I want to run the VI on the PC as an application(exe) with the NI LabVIEW runtime engine because I won´t install LabVIEW on this PC. (on my development computer I have LabVIEW 2011)
My question is:
Does the Profibus communication work if I run the VI that way if I add the needed "additional installer" to my installer file?
I´m quite sure that it will work but I want to check this point before ordering a Profibus-Board.
I hope you understand my question and give me a positive answer so I can order an new Profibus-PCI-Board
best regards
Martin

Hi Martin,
the scenario you are describing sounds reasonable and that should work.
But in general, if you buy something at NI you can always call and describe your situation. Either the sales person can help you with your decision or in more complicated cases the sales person redirects you to a support engineer.
Best regards,

Install MAX with only LabVIEW runtime engine

Hi,
I want to know if it is possible to install MAX from the Device Driver CD, when only LabVIEW RunTime engine is installed. There is no full installation of LabVIEW on that PC. That's MAX 3.1.1.3004 with LabVIEW RunTime Engine 7.1.
Patrick.

Dear Patrick,
The device driver CD usually does not have a single installation of MAX, but you can install MAX by installing most of the other drivers such as NI-DAQ, NI-488.2, NI-Serial, etc. MAX does not require LabVIEW, so you can have MAX and LabVIEW Run-Time without LabVIEW. Have a great day!
Sincerely,
Marni S.

Load Labview runtime engine with matlab platform

When I use labview DLL on matlab platform it loads labview runtime engine.
Once I use "close all" command of matlab, labview runtime engine is not available any more so I want to reload it.
How can I do this?
If I run the DLL again an error is occurred.
Best regards,
Nir

Hello Nir,
I recommend contacting MathWorks for assistance with the exact functionality and results of close all. Based on online documentation for calling DLLs in MATLAB, you should use unloadlibrary to remove the LabVIEW DLL from memory instead of close all. If you use this method, are you able to load the LabVIEW DLL (using the loadlibrary function) and call it successfully from MATLAB?

LV 6.0 runtime engine not found with labview 6.1

I recently upgraded to LabView 6.1.
Now when I try to run an exe built under 6.02, I get an error that the 6.0 (or compatable) runtime engine could not be found.
I have the developers version of labview 6.1 installed, and the labview runtime engine 6.1 installed.
Do I need to install 6.0 runtime too? (in that case do I need 5.1 ruintime instaled too for exe's built a log time ago)?
Shouldnt the 6.1 RTE be able to run older exe's?
I could find no solution searching this web site.
Thanks
Larry Junek, Certified LabVIEW Developer

Did you install 6.1 wheer 6.0 was?
You may have lost the 6.0 RTE you did not realize you where using.
Yes you need the version of RTE that matches the app.

Running Datasocket in labview 2013 open labview runtime engine 7.0

Hello All,
I am trying to communicate with a COGNEX camera using Labview 2013. I am using Datasocket to read tags from cognex OPC server.
but when I open labview and run the code for the first time. An installer will automatically pop up trying to install labview runtime engine 7.0.
When i cancel the installation datasocket throws an error. Again if i run second time, datasocket works fine and communicate with cognex camera using OPC.
This problem comes everytime I open labview and run the datasocket. I cancel the installer. second time onwards when i run the code everything works fine.
This is actually annoying and i doubt how things will work when i make an executable.
Need help.
Is this due to datasocket version installed... how to resolve this.

Hi phil,
That is interesting that you were unable to find the offending key that the installation is having trouble with. Do you have Administrator privileges on your computer? You may even want to try to log in as the actual Administrator itself to make sure that you have access to all of the proper registry keys. Also, I was going to say that I do think you're right with Windows XP not having the Scanreg/fix function, but there are several free programs that you can download as registry checkers. You may want to try one of those to see if you can find the key and give it the proper permission.
As far as the other part of your question, the Run-Time Engines are very important for LabVIEW to be able to run, but the 7.1.1 Run-Time Engine should not be affecting a LabVIEW 8.2 installation as it will use the 8.2 Run-Time Engine. One thing that you can do is go into your Control Panel under Add or Remove Programs>>National Instruments Software and you can try and repair/modify your Run-Time Engine there. If you already have the 7.1.1 Run-Time Engine on your computer, this is where it will show up so you can make any changes you want. Also, if you go to www.ni.com and click on "Drivers and Updates" on the right, you will be able to find the Run-Time Engine there that you will need, but I would definitely try using a downloadable registry checker first before attempting to change any of the software that is currently on your computer. As stated in the Knowledgebase article, this is actually an error from Windows saying that the registry key does not have the proper permission settings, so I am reluctant to say that downloading the new Run-Time Engine from our website will help much. Please try some of these suggestions out and let me know how they work out for you. Thanks!

Trouble installing labview runtime engine

Can not install labview runtime engine. Says there is already a higher version installed.

Yes, this is a pain - and I have no idea why NI would design their installers in this way. I can think of no rational reason. In any case, the work around is to uninstall everything and then reinstall in a different order. For example, I ran into the problem was trying to install a runtime executable on a machine that already has some NI drivers installed. Part of that installation was that it installed the V7.1 runtime engine. When I then went to install my executable which was built in V7.0 it wouldn't install. To get around this bug I had to uninstall all NI software and then reinstall my executable and then the drivers, in that order.

LabVIEW Runtime Engine 2010 NI_AALPro Error

Hi All,
I have an problem with the executable version of my LabVIEW program. I just created an LabVIEW program in LabVIEW Professional 2010 version to acquire some FFT spectrums so it also use some function palettes of Sound and Vibrations toolkit like Power Spectrum, Peak Search, Power in Band etc.
Then I just created an executable version of the program to run on a different system (Tools>>Build Executable Verion(EXE)). But when I tried to run the executable verion on a different system is showed some errors. I am attaching a printscreen of all errors showed.
So, the executable version of the program is working fine in the develoment system but showed some errors when we try to run it on a different system. We have already installed the LabVIEW runtime engine 2010 as well in the second system.
My one more question is when we build an executable version of a LabVIEW program then it should run on all PC without any other software (Runtime engine) because it got an extension of .exe
so is there any chance or way to build a totally standalone executable version of the program without using any runtime engine as well.
Thanks

Hi PSBRRR,
It seems like you didn't include all the dependencies of your VI or project to your build specification. Can you send a screenshot of the Source Files Setting page of the Application Properties dialog box ? You have to add all the VIs and DLLs that are used in the Sound & Vibration toolkit and any others you are using to your executable file or support directory.
For the last question : no you can't. Since LabVIEW 2010, the Run-Time Engine is like the "Java Virtual Machine". The compiled code inside your EXE is interpreted by the "LabVIEW Virtual Machine" included in the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine. That's why it requires the Run-Time Engine to be executed or at least the development environment (previous versions of LabVIEW didn't use this principle but it was also required to have the Run-Time Engine installed).

Da Helmut

Labview runtime engine [SOLVED]

Hi, I'm a new Arch user having migrated from Ubuntu a few weeks ago. I've been stuck for several days trying to get the National Instruments Labview runtime engine installed. It is an easy process on Ubuntu so it must be possible with Arch. I'd prefer not to operate outside of pacman (ie. installing with rpm or dpkg) based on what I've read in the forums.
The Labview runtime engine is a free download from National Instruments and allows programs that are generated by the Labview developer package (expensive) to be run on any box without having the licensed Labview software installed. This is handled with two .rpm files that one downloads from the NI website after registering there. You must download the .rpm files appropriate for the version of Labview that generated your executable. (Note that executables generated by Windows Labview and Linux Labview are not interchangeable) For reference, those files can be found here:
http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/1103/lang/en
For Ubuntu, I converted the .rpm files to .deb using alien and installed them with dpkg. The Labview executables can then be run by opening them in the file manager. As a first step in Arch, I unbundled the .rpm files using rpmextract and found that they are just a bunch of library files placed in usr sub-directories. I then wrote the following naive PKGBUILD followed by makepkg -s.
pkgname=lvtest
pkgver=1
pkgrel=1
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
license=('GPL')
makedepends=('rpmextract')
source=("labview86-rte-8.6.0-1.i386.rpm"
"labview-rte-aal-1.1-1.i386.rpm")
md5sums=('37b43da794fd9c61d0c5e3c9cfa56628'
'a2110e5b5677351095bd93e5b1aa5bea')
build() {
cd ${srcdir}
rpmextract.sh labview-rte-aal-1.1-1.i386.rpm
rpmextract.sh labview86-rte-8.6.0-1.i386.rpm
cp -ra ${srcdir}/usr $pkgdir/
This generates a pkg.tar.xz that I install with pacman -U. My problem is that the Labview executables are not being recognized, ie. I don't know how to open them. I suspect this has something to do with permissions or perhaps linking that I sometimes see in other PKGBUILD files, but I don't know how to proceed. I am brand new at this, but have spent a lot of time searching the wiki and forums looking for hints and guidance.

Can you put the labview runtime engine in a vi?

hello,
can you put the labview runtime engine in a vi when you build an application or do you need to install it separately on each computer that is going to run a labview application? thank you

I found the tutorials in labview help pretty good
Example: Building a Stand-Alone Application
Example: Building an Installer (Windows)
This certainly got me started working with the project explorer to build and deploy your application.
Hope this helps

Canon 860 Series (Pixma) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips

After spending several hours sorting out Canon Pixma OSX problems here are my thoughts:
Canon 860 Series (Pixma 868) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips
Problem:
- New imac and MacBook Pro 2012 (OSX 10.8.2) had a problem using Canon Pixma 868 printer on network and would not scan or print using Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print), which has advanced scanning and photo printing functions.
- When I connected the canon printer to my imac, OSX 10.8.2 automatically downloaded and installed drivers for Canon 860 series printer. I could then add the new printer (select ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”) and printer would work while connected via USB but could not get to print or scan over network wifi.
- The original Canon 860 Series CD does not work with 10.8 and the manual / online instructions did not make sense (as based on CD install).
Solution:
1) Install Canon Printer Drivers and Software (from official Canon site)
Go to canon support site, review FAQ, then download and install following Pixma 860 Series software & drivers for OSX 10.8 (links see below). The version I downloaded is in brackets but check for updated version. Full instructions are below.
Canon 860 Series Drivers & Software for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion:
The base software and drivers needed for using Canon 860 Series on Mac OS X 10.8 (USB) are
1 Printer Driver
(Canon MX860 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver. 10.67.1.0 (03-Aug-2012))
2 Scanner Driver
(Canon MX860 series Scanner Driver Ver. 14.11.4a (03-Aug-2012))
3 Network Tool
(Canon IJ Network Tool Ver. 4.1.0 for Intel Mac (27-Dec-2012)
Canon Software for using advanced printing and scanning functions (while connected to network)
4 Solution Menu
(Canon Solution Menu Ver. 1.4.1 (27-Jul-2012 ))
5 MP Navigator EX
(Canon MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 (02-Auf-2012))
6 Easy-PhotoPrint EX
(Canon Easy-PhotoPrint EX Ver. 4.1.6 (21-Jan-2013 ))
Canon Support (HK) – check your local site
http://www.canon.com.hk/en/download/main/index.do
Select Product and drivers from support site eg http://support-hk.canon-asia.com/
1. Choose a product category
Multifunctional Printers
2. Choose a product series
Pixma
3. Choose a product model
Pixma MX868
4. Choose type of document
Downloads or FAQ
If you have problems installing the software under 10.8, see the FAQ on Canon site. You will need to allow software installs from “unidentified developers by using “Control” Key or by changing your system preferences)
2) Check Canon Printer and Software Working while connected via USB
Once you have downloaded and installed drivers and software and restarted computer, check that the printer and Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print) are working via USB. Open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App) and make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it shows the correct SSID Wifi settings (under the Canon IJ Network Tool App ‘Setup menu’). This is normally done as part of the automatic install but worth double checking
3) Add new network printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”).
After you have checked USB printing turn off printer, unplug the USB cable and shutdown the Canon IJ Network Tool App.
Then turn the printer back on and wait 30s. Then add a new printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”). Once you select “+” (add new printer), wait 10-30s for the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer to appear in the new window eg Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) (Kind: “Canon IJ Network”)
DO NOT ADD THE MX 860 SERIES BONJOUR SCANNER (the Bonjour Scanner is the built-in software, is not needed and often appears first on the add printer list). The Canon scanner can be accessed used through the MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 software (which has much better functions)
You will now have two Printer Canon MX860 (USB) and Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network). Set the Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network) as default and test print and scan
If the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer does not appear, check the printer and make sure that the printer can see the wifi network. On the printer select Menu / Settings / Device Settings / Lan Settings / WLAN Setting List. It should say WLAN Active, identify the SSID and have an IP address
If the printer can not see the Wifi Network, plug the USB cable back in, then open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App). Make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it has your SSID settings (under setup), if it has this info, restart the computer and the printer and try again

LabVIEW Runtime engine on Windows Embedded Standard 7 P 32/64 bit?

Did anyone ever try to install and run LabVIEW Runtime engine (2011 or later) on Windows Embedded Standard 7 P 32/64 bit?
I am trying to figure out if this will work, for example on a Beckhoff CX5120 embedded PC. I will need to have some simple TCP/IP communication in order to exchange information with another PC, but nothing else, i.e. drivers, etc...
I hope someone tried to do this already. I just don't have the right hardware right now to check it out.
Solved!

As NI sells touch panels with WES7 installed here: http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/210551 it's pretty safe to assume they've used the RTE on WES7.
But yes, it's been done.

Make the installer for my executable run the DAqcarddriver and runtime engine installer automatically

*Hi
I would like to know how to make the installer for my executable run the DAqcarddriver and runtime engine installer automatically
I would like to include run time engine and the drivers of my daqcard(AI16XE50),( and maybe Ni daq or anything else needed?) in order to make my application portable for other computers on OS win98 and winXP .
How can I do that
thank you in advance
Olivier

Olivier,
What version of LabVIEW are you using to build your application? On a remote computer you should only need the drivers you are using and the Run-Time Engine. You can attach installers to LabVIEW 8 installers, but for previous versions you will have to add it by opening the installer configuration page, configuring your installer and then configure the Advanced properties. This will allow you to attach a EXE to the installer which you can run. Also depending on the version of LabVIEW will affect the OS version that you will be able to install the RTE on. LabVIEW 7.0 is the last version that can be installed on Windows 98.
Please let me know if you have any further questions and please include the version of LabVIEW you are using. Thanks!
