I've been writing code for a Rohde & Schwarz instrument that we have on site and have run
into a problem. I've downloaded the LabVIEW driver software from the Rohde & Schwarz web site.
The basic problem is that the code seems to work fine in the normal developer mode, but stops
working as soon as the software is compiled. I am using LabVIEW 2011.
Let me direct your attention to the application note 1MA170
Please see chapter 3.4.2:
3.4.2 How to Build Executables in LabVIEW
The driver core of the attribute-based instrument drivers is dynamically linked
to any executed VI during runtime. This cannot be recognized by the LabVIEW application
builder. The LabVIEW application builder follows all static dependencies and
includes them in the distributed package when building an executable.
To create an executable in LabVIEW, please manually add all VIs in the <inst
lib>\rsXYZ\_utility\rsXYZ_core\callbacks\ folder to the LabVIEW project. With
this manual reference, the driver core is included in the build and the driver core
is accessible during runtime as well.
