Installation and Configuration

This chapter explains how to set up your test system.

Installing the Software

Use the Setup program that came with your NI-VISA/NI-VXI software to
install the entire software package or a software update, or to reinstall
software in the event that your files are accidentally erased.

Some of the utilities rely on the LabWindows/CVI Run-Time Engine. This
software is installed, if necessary, during the NI-VISA/NI-VXI installation.

To be compliant with VXI

plug&play

specifications, a VXI controller must

provide the VISA I/O driver library standardized by VXI

plug&play

. VISA

ensures that your controller can run all VXI

plug&play

-compatible software

now and in the future.

The NI-VISA software in this kit is compatible with the WINNT/GWINNT
framework. With NI-VISA installed on your computer, you can run any
VXI

plug&play

software that is compatible with this framework. This

includes instrument drivers and executable soft front panel software that
are included with VXI

plug&play

-compatible instruments from a variety of

vendors.

Install the NI-VISA and NI-VXI Software

This section describes how to install the NI-VISA and NI-VXI software.
Please read these directions carefully along with any messages on the
screen before making your selections.

Note

You can quit the Setup program at any time by pressing the

Cancel

button.
