Installing the LabVIEW Software and Driver
A DriverLINX driver for LabVIEW is provided on your DriverLINX
CD-ROM. The LabVIEW driver does not install automatically when you
install DriverLINX and your board. You must first install the LabVIEW
application program, then install the DriverLINX driver. Access the
LabVIEW driver installation routine by starting setup.exe on the
DriverLINX CD-ROM, then selecting LabVIEW
™
Support from the
Install These DriverLINX Components screen.
Consult the manual provided by National Instruments for LabVIEW
installation instructions.
Continue with the next procedure, “Installing DriverLINX Software
Components and Documentation.”
Installing DriverLINX Software Components and
Documentation
This section discusses installation of DriverLINX drivers and interfaces,
and DriverLINX and board documentation.
Note:
If you plan to use LabVIEW with your board, the LabVIEW
program must be installed before installing the DriverLINX support files
for LabVIEW. Keithley recommends installing LabVIEW now—before
performing the installation sequence below—and then installing the
DriverLINX support files for LabVIEW during the same session in which
you install DriverLINX.
Even if DriverLINX versions other than the DAS-TC/B Series version are
already installed on your system, you must also install the DAS-TC/B
Series DriverLINX version. In the process, some DriverLINX capabilities
shared by all boards may be upgraded (test utilities, for example).
