LabVIEW Real-Time (RT) Installer Does not Install LabVIEW RT on my Host Computer Primary Software: LabVIEW Modules>>Real-Time ModulePrimary Software Version: 8.2 Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A Secondary Software: Driver Software>>NI-Serial
Problem: When I try to install LabVIEW RT 8.20 or 8.21, I get a cannot install symbol from the installer for the LabVIEW RT (see Figure 1 below). Why won't LabVIEW RT install? Solution: This is a known issue with host computers that already have an installation of the NI-Serial driver. You can verify this problem by checking your version of NI-Serial in the Read Me file. Select Start Programs » National Instruments » NI-Serial » Readme. If you have version 3.2 or greater, the LabVIEW RT v8.20 installer run on your host computer will have the display shown below (NI-Serial 3.3 or greater will have the same affect on LabVIEW RT v8.21).
There are some ways to put the host computer in a state where LabVIEW RT can install correctly.
The NI-Serial installers can be found at NI.com Drivers and Updates. Related Links: Attachments:
