Cannot save VI "ULx Write (Analog 1D Wfm NChan 1Samp).vi

[Carlos Betancourt]

Our team wants to move to LabVIEW 2024 Q1 32 bits, but the following errors are observed:

ULx installer does not install all the files, for example, it's missing the Trigger.llb

The ULx_LV, was trying to be found in an old Labview version (8.5)

It prevents us from saving projects, saying we don't have access to write the containing LLB. 

It does not show the installed VIs in the tools palette (solved manually by copy-pasting the .mnu file)

Hello @Carlos Betancourt.

The example vi's were created with LabVIEW 8.5, but are supported in the latest LabVIEW release (currently LV2024).  The relevant files are installed on the target system via the ULx for NI LabVIEW installer.

When a user opens a ULx for NI LabVIEW example in LabVIEW, they should click the Ignore button when the Load Warning Summary window appears.

 

Afterward, from the main menu go to File - Save As.  Leave the default option to Copy and press the Continue button.

 

In the Save the VI window, do not save the vi example back to the original LLB example file (in my case Measure Voltage.llb), but instead click the down arrow button to select a new file location and save the vi with a new filename.  

 

Save the vi example when changes are implemented.

When closing LabVIEW, select the Don't Save - All button, in the Save changes before closing? window.

When you reopen the example file, click the Ignore button when the Load Warning Summary window opens again and continue using the file or developing your application.

NOTE: As an alternate option, a user could opt to select the Save - All button, but for each of the dependent sub-vi's, the user will need to save the files to the same directory that contains their new example file.

 

Regards,

Fausto

@Carlos Betancourt Right click each .llb file in C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW <Version>\vi.lib\ULx\ , go to properties and uncheck "Read-only".
