Migrating a Vision Builder for Automated Inspection Script to LabVIEW

Primary Software: Vision Builder for Automated Inspection
Primary Software Version: 3.0
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: LabVIEW Development Systems>>Professional Development System

Problem:
I am planning to migrate my Vision Builder for Automated Inspection (AI) inspection to LabVIEW. Do I need to purchase the Vision Development Module in order to perform this migration?

Solution:
Yes, the Vision Development Module is required to allow Vision Builder for AI to generate LabVIEW code. This is because Vision Builder for AI uses the VIs that are provided by NI-Vision to carry out the necessary Vision processing functions in the LabVIEW environment. Note that NI-Vision is part of the Vision Development Module, and is a separate product from Vision Builder for AI.

For future reference, this information can be found in the Vision Builder for AI 3.0 Readme file. One specific excerpt states the following:

"Vision Builder AI 3.0 can create LabVIEW VIs that implement the steps of your inspection diagram. This feature requires LabVIEW 8.0 or later and NI Vision 8.0 or later."

Furthermore, selecting the menu item, Tools ยป Migrate Inspection to LabVIEW will produce the following dialog if the appropriate versions of both LabVIEW and Vision Development Module are not installed:
