Generating Code for LabVIEW 8.0 in Vision Builder for Automated Inspection

Primary Software: Vision Builder for Automated Inspection
Primary Software Version: 2.6.1
Primary Software Fixed Version: 3.0
Secondary Software: N/A

Problem: When trying to generate code for LabVIEW 8.0 using Vision Builder for Automated Inspection, I receive a pop up looking for VIs. Why is this?

Solution: If you attempt to migrate an inspection to LabVIEW 8.0 from Vision Builder for Automated Inspection (VBAI) version 2.6.1, it is possible you will receive pop up dialogs requesting the location of necessary VIs. Should you cancel these dialog messages, VBAI will generate code, but that code will not execute due to missing VIs. In order to enable the ability to migrate inspections from VBAI 2.6.1 to LabVIEW 8.0, you will need to mass compile the VBAI folder. The steps to perform this process are listed below.

  1. Launch LabVIEW 8.0

  2. Select Tools»Advanced»Mass Compile...

  3. Navigate to and select the "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Vision Builder AI 2.6\LV\SubVIs" directory.

  4. Select OK and wait for compile to complete


After this process completes, you should be able to Migrate your inspections to LabVIEW 8.0 without any problems.
