Problem with Run-time vision 8.5

[kobika]

Hello,

I wrote two programs, X and Y , both of which have been compiled to executables intended for use with LabVIEW Run-Time 8.5 and NI Vision Run-Time 8.5. Both executables run once installed, but X does not show any evidence of working with the NI Vision libraries.

When I run the two executables on machine with NI vision full-installed, both X and Y works perfectly well.

Does anyone have any idea what might be the problem?

Best regards,

Kobika

You need an additional run-time licence for Vision applications. Once you buy that, you will get a serial number that you enter and activate your vision runtime licence on the PC that you are installing the executable with vision code.

Also, even if you don't have the licence yet, you can still run your application for 30 days, but each time you start the application, the licnece manager will ask if you want to run in demo mode or activate the licence? This window usually gets hidden behind your app window.

click on 30 day trial (demo mode) and your app should run fine if everything else is OK.

Help is needed !

I continue work on the system and the problem reduces to this:

If I have NI Vision 8.5 deactivated (unlicensed), but NI Vision Runtime 8.5 active (licensed), I get a "Unlicensed copy of NI Vision" error for at least the following VIs:

* IMAQ Fill Image

* IMAQ Draw

* IMAQ SetColorPixelLine

Most other VIs work, however, so I know I have a valid Runtime license. Presumably there are others with this problem as well, my search was not exhaustive.

If I then license NI Vision, all those errors go away. So it appears that the Vision Runtime license (at least on my installations) doesn't comprehensively cover all the VIs available with NI Vision.

I am not sure what you are doing.

How do you have NI Vision and Vision Runtime on the SAME computer?? The PC that you need to run the exe on should only have the vision runtime activated. Have you installed the whole vision package on it??

Also what do you mean "doesn't run"?

What happens? What error messages? Please be http://www.catb.org/%7Eesr/faqs/smart-questions.html' target="_blank">clear in your questions and what you have tried, else no one will respond to your queries if they have no information to work with.

Are you using any IMAQ Camera-related VI's? That may require a separate licence (I am not sure about this). But maybe you should get NI involved if some of the VI's are generating error and not others.
