Recommended LabVIEW Real-Time Versions for Real-Time FieldPoint Controllers

Hardware: Compact FieldPoint, FieldPoint

Problem:
What software is recommended for my FieldPoint controller?

Solution:
National Instruments will not provide support for LabVIEW Real-Time 8.6 on the 20xx family of FieldPoint and Compact FieldPoint controllers. The 20xx controllers have more limited disk space than newer families of controllers. For this reason, consider using LabVIEW Real-Time 7.1.1, which has the lowest disk space requirement of all the recent LabVIEW versions. If special features such as the LabVIEW project are needed, LabVIEW Real-Time 8.2.1 or 8.5.1 are recommended.

Please reference this chart for compatibility between LabVIEW Real-Time versions and each controller family in the FieldPoint and Compact FieldPoint platform.
