How Do I Port My IVI Logical Names to Another Computer? Primary Software: Instrument Drivers/IVI>>IVI Compliance PackagePrimary Software Version: 3.2 Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A Secondary Software: N/A
Problem: I am creating a LabVIEW application that uses IVI instrument drivers. I am developing my code on one machine and then targeting my application to another machine. I want to port my Logical Names, Driver Sessions, and other IVI configuration data to my target machine. This way, the data will show up in Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) and in LabVIEW IVI Logical Name controls on my target machine. I know that I can export my DAQ hardware configuration by going to File->Export in MAX (see link below). I would like to do something similar with my IVI configuration. Can this be done and, if so, how? Solution: There is no menu item in MAX that allows you to import/export IVI configuration data. However, this can be accomplished manually. Whenever you create or modify IVI Driver Sessions and Logical Names in MAX and click Save, you are saving this data to an XML file on your system. The file is called “IVIConfigurationStore.xml” and is located in your “C:\Program Files\IVI\Data” directory. Simply replace this file on your target machine with the one from your development machine and you will have ported over your IVI configuration. You must restart MAX and LabVIEW for these changes to take effect. Note: Your target machine must have the IVI Compliance Package, VISA, and all of the necessary IVI specific drivers installed.
