• Ensure that Automatically activate through a secure Internet connection is selected, and click Next.
• Enter the product serial number, and click Next.
• Enter your registration information, and click Next.
  

Tip: Enter your email address to receive a copy of your activation code for your records.

Deploying Vision Applications

Deployment refers to developing an application so that it can be distributed, or deployed, on a different computer than the one on which the application was developed. The NI Vision Development Module provides everything you need to deploy custom NI Vision applications to target computers. The NI Vision Development Module provides the following options:

• The ability to create NI Vision Runtime installers, which integrate with the LabVIEW Application Builder, applications built in LabWindows/CVI, or a custom installer.
• The ability to install the NI Vision Runtime directly from the NI Vision Development Module installation media.
• One NI Vision Runtime License, which allows you to install a custom application on a single machine.
  

The NI Vision Development Module installer contains the runtime installer for NI Vision. The runtime installer is installed at \Run-Time Engine, where is the location to which the NI Vision Development Module is installed. Visit the ni.com to download software upgrades for NI Vision and the NI Vision Runtime installers.

Purchasing NI Vision Deployment Licenses

You must purchase an NI Vision Runtime License (part number 778044-03) for each target machine onto which you want to install your custom NI Vision application, even if you install the NI Vision Runtime directly from the NI Vision Development Module installation media. The NI Vision Development Module ships with one runtime license. Contact a National Instruments sales representative or visit ni.com to purchase additional runtime licenses.

Note: Additional NI Vision Runtime licenses do not include installation media. To install additional licenses, use the original NI Vision Development Module installation media and the serial number provided by National Instruments.

Using the NI Vision Runtime

You can call the NI Vision Runtime installer from the application installer. If you create the application installer with the LabVIEW Application Builder or with LabWindows/CVI, you can direct the installer to call the NI Vision Runtime installer.

Refer to the LabVIEW Help for more information about the LabVIEW Application Builder. Refer to the NI LabWindows/CVI Help for more information about building and distributing LabWindows/CVI applications.

You can also direct a custom application installer to call the NI Vision Runtime installer. This may be useful if you are creating an installer for applications created in other development environments. Refer to the documentation that came with the installer software to learn how to call executables from the custom installer. If you are using a custom installer, call the NI Vision Runtime installer at the end of the installation procedure because the installer may require the system to be restarted.

To call the NI Vision Runtime installer silently (non-interactively), you must add /q /AcceptLicenses yes as command line arguments to the runtime installer. For example, enter \Run-Time Engine\visionrte.exe /q /AcceptLicenses yes, where is the location to which NI Vision is installed, and is the version number of the NI Vision Runtime installed. Refer to the Automating the Installation of NI Products section for more information on how to change the level of interactivity of the installer or whether it automatically initiates a system restart.

Distributing LabVIEW Applications

The NI Vision Runtime installer does not install LabVIEW VIs. If you use the LabVIEW Application Builder to create an application (EXE) or dynamic link library (DLL), the Application Builder automatically includes the VIs used by the application. If you distribute a VI, you must include all subVIs that comprise the top-level VI. You must include the appropriate LabVIEW Runtime as part of the installation.

Refer to the LabVIEW Help for more information about viewing the hierarchy of VIs and for more information about using the LabVIEW Runtime.

Distributing LabWindows/CVI Applications

In addition to including the NI Vision Runtime with the installer, you must include the appropriate LabWindows/CVI Runtime. Refer to the NI LabWindows/CVI Help for more information about creating an executable, creating a dynamic link library, and distributing applications.

Automating the Installation of NI Products

You can automate the installation of most NI products using command-line arguments to suppress some or all of the installer user interface and dialog boxes. However, starting with the August 2012 releases (products using NI Installers version 3.1 or later), you may need to perform additional steps before or during a silent installation of NI software.

If the NI product you are installing uses Microsoft .NET 4.0, the .NET installer may run before any NI software installs and may require a reboot before the installation of NI software begins. To avoid a .NET reboot, install .NET 4.0 separately before you install NI software.

For more information, refer to the following KnowledgeBase articles:

• For more information on silent installations of individual NI products, refer to KB 4CJDP38M, Automating the Installation of a Single Installer.
• For more information on silent installations of suited NI products, such as NI Developer Suite, refer to KB 4GGGDQH0, Automating the Installation of a Suited Installer.
• To determine what version of NI Installers your product contains, refer to KB 4CJDR18M, How Can I Determine the Type and Version of My National Instruments Installer?.
  

Known Issues

You can access the software and documentation known issues list online. Refer to the National Instruments Web site for an up-to-date list of known issues in the NI Vision Development Module.

National Instruments is aware of the following issues you may encounter while using NI Vision Development Module.

• The IMAQ Compare Golden Template VI returns different defect image results for LabVIEW 32-bit and LabVIEW 64-bit versions.
• LabWindows/CVI 2015 examples for the Vision Development Module can give null pointer dereference crashes if Vision development or runtime licenses are not activated.
• Reading a frame from an AVI compressed using the codec "Cinepak Codec by Radius" with the IMAQ AVI Read Frame VI corrupts memory, and prevents LabVIEW from displaying a file dialog.
• The IMAQ Learn Distortion Model VI with the Distortion Model set to Polynomial generates an inconsistent calibration template if the X Step and Y Step values from the IMAQ Calibration Target to Points - Circular Dots 2 VI are less than 0.0001.
• The IMAQ FPGA Local Threshold VI needs to operate at 30 MHz on IC-317x targets when using the Niblack method. If operated above 30 MHz, it results in a distorted image.
• The OCR Training Interface crashes intermittently on exit when using a character file with more than 255 samples.
• When an FPGA target is active in a LabVIEW project, the Vision Assistant executable cannot generate code for a non-FPGA LabVIEW target into that same instance of LabVIEW.
• When zoom factors above 30 are used, the Image Display Control on NI Linux Real-Time targets leaves black-colored border space.
• The snapshot property node for the Image Display Control on NI Linux Real-Time targets returns an error even though the control is functioning properly. This issue is present only when the target is connected to the host.
• The Image Display Control on NI Linux Real-Time targets may not work properly when an image is set using a property node value and the target is connected to the host. The property node value works properly when the target is disconnected from the host.
• Vision FPGA VIs may be broken when opened on one target after being used on another target. You can fix the broken VI by forcing LabVIEW to recompile it by pressing + + Run Button.
• Vision FPGA Filter VIs with a mask using a 9x9 kernel support image widths up to 2,000 pixels.
• The IMAQ FPGA GrayMorphology Dilation 5x5 U8x1 VI left border will give incorrect values on Kintex-based NI FPGA targets.
• The AVI2 VIs do not support writing extra data to AVIs.
• The IMAQ AVI2 Open and Close VIs leak when opening and closing a session with Built-in Codecs.
• Japanese and Simplified Chinese for text overlays are not supported on NI Linux Real-Time targets.
• The Calibration Axis is not set properly in the Calibration Training Interface, resulting in wrong real-world coordinates, when the Calibration Type is set to Point Coordinate Calibration and the Implicit Calibration Axis option is deselected.
• The IMAQ Read QR Code VI may hang when the QR Code Cell Size has a minimum size of 2 or less. Setting the minimum size to 3 or higher will prevent this issue.
• The IMAQ Read Data Matrix Barcode 3 VI may hang on some I16 images.
• Zooming out on a large 32-bit image in the Image Display Control in LabVIEW will cause the image to black out. Only the displayed image is affected. The image itself is not modified.
• To store error statistics on corrected images, you must run the IMAQ Get Calibration Info2 VI before correcting the calibration template image. The Return Error Information input must be set to TRUE.
• Vision Assistant cannot generate C code if a double-byte character exists in the path to Vision Assistant or in the destination path for the generated code.
• Some Vision Development Module .NET examples only work if Measurement Studio 8.6 or later is installed.
• The Visual Basic .NET Label example does not compile.
• There is no 64-bit Vision API for .NET.
• Installing the Vision Development Module on a Windows Vista 64-bit computer where Visual Studio 2005 has been recently installed causes compatibility warnings.
• On some systems, the Vision Development Module cannot open two of the installed AVI files, SideCrash2.avi, when running as a 64-bit application.
• The IMAQ Overlay Multiple Lines 2 VI returns an error when Fill is the selected Drawing Mode.
• The IMAQ Edge Tool 3 VI changes the position of edges found when image was calibrated with point coordinates calibration.
