Documentation

The XNET Software and Hardware Installation Guide included with the NI-XNET installation media includes instructions for installing National Instruments hardware and software.

The NI-XNET Hardware and Software Manual is the primary document for NI XNET products. This manual includes an introduction to CAN, FlexRay, and LIN, specifications for hardware, information about how to get started with application development, and a complete reference for all NI-XNET functions.

The NI-XNET Hardware and Software Manual is in Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF). You can download the Acrobat Reader for free at: www.adobe.com.

Open the document from Start»All Programs»National Instruments»NI-XNET.

Links to the NI-XNET Hardware and Software Manual are in the online help for each NI-XNET function within the National Instruments LabVIEW and LabWindows™/CVI™ development environments.

Online help for the NI-XNET features within Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) is in the MAX Help Topics menu. The MAX Help Topics menu for NI-XNET also includes a link to the NI-XNET Hardware and Software Help.

Installing NI-XNET 14.1

Before installing the NI-XNET software, log on as Administrator or as a user with Administrator privileges. The NI-XNET software setup program must have Administrator privileges because the program modifies the configuration registry of your system. Complete the following steps to install the NI-XNET software.

• Insert the NI-XNET software CD into your CD-ROM drive. The installer launches if your CD-ROM drive plays data CDs automatically. If the installer does not launch automatically, navigate to the CD using Windows Explorer and launch the autorun.exe file from your NI-XNET software CD.
• The installation wizard guides you through the necessary steps to install the NI-XNET software. You can go back and change values where appropriate by clicking the Back button. You can exit the setup where appropriate by clicking Cancel.
• When the installation is complete, click Finish.

Issue Number	Issue
340351	Using signals in the NI-XNET Bus Monitor prevents the subordinate mode. Furthermore, you cannot use those signals in your applications that the Bus Monitor is already using.
404255	If you install DAQmx version 9.7.0 or older before installing NI-XNET it is possible for your XNET cSeries modules to show up with an "Attributes" tab in MAX that will contain text saying "Unsupported Module." It is okay to ignore this tab and it does not mean anything is wrong your XNET device. This tab can be removed by upgrading to DAQmx version 9.7.5 or newer.
405281	Using database object names that only differ by case in LabVIEW 2012 can cause a problem. This can be resolved only by moving to a different LabVIEW version.

Additional Programming TopicsNI-CAN Compatibility

If you intend to use the NI-CAN API with your NI-XNET PCI/PXI hardware, refer to the NI-XNET Compatibility for NI-CAN appendix in the NI-CAN Hardware and Software Manual.

Deployed databases on LabVIEW Real-Time targets

When upgrading the NI-XNET software on your LabVIEW Real-Time target, you need to re-deploy your database files to that target using a host computer that runs the same version of NI-XNET as the target.

Removing and inserting C Series modules on CompactRIO targets during device communication is not supported

Inserting/Removing a module into a cRIO chassis that is actively communicating with an NI 986x module can cause application failures and possibly device damage.

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 about automating the installation of NI products, refer to the following KnowledgeBase articles:

• For more information about silent installations of individual NI products, refer to KB 4CJDP38M, Automating the Installation of a Single Installer.
• For more information about silent installations of NI products in a suite, such as NI Developer Suite, refer to KB 4GGGDQH0, How Do I Automate 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?.
  

How to Use NI Software with Microsoft Windows 8.x

When you install National Instruments software on Microsoft Windows 8.x, you will notice a few additional tiles in the Apps view, including shortcuts to NI application software products such as NI LabVIEW, Measurement & Automation Explorer (NI MAX), and NI Launcher.

Using NI Launcher

NI Launcher helps you find and launch installed NI products. It provides you with a method of finding NI products similar to the Start menu in previous versions of Microsoft Windows. To use NI Launcher, click the NI Launcher tile in the Apps view. NI Launcher launches the desktop and opens a menu containing a list of NI products. Click any NI product to launch it.

Note  NI MAX does not appear as a desktop shortcut when installed on Microsoft Windows 8.x. You can launch NI MAX either from the Apps view or from within NI Launcher.

Pinning Frequently Used Applications

For convenience, you can pin your most-used NI applications, such as MAX, to either the Start screen or the Taskbar on the desktop, as necessary:

Current Application	Icon Location	Pin to Action
Windows 8.x Desktop	Desktop Taskbar	Right-click application and select Pin to Taskbar
Windows 8.x Desktop	Start screen	Right-click application and select Pin to Start
Windows 8.x Start screen	Desktop Taskbar	Right-click application and select Pin to taskbar from the menu bar on the bottom of the screen

Finding All Programs

If you want to find a particular application or related files, such as documentation files, from the Start screen, you can access all installed files from the Apps view. To get to the Apps view, right-click anywhere on the Start screen and select All apps (Windows 8) or click the down arrow on the bottom left of the screen (Windows 8.1).

For more information about NI support for Windows 8.x, visit ni.com/windows8.
