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

The NI Vision Development Module installer contains the runtime engine installer for NI Vision. The runtime engine 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 Run-Time installers.

Purchasing NI Vision Deployment Licenses

You must purchase an NI Vision Run-Time 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 Run-Time Engine 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 Run-Time 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 Run-Time Engine

You can call the NI Vision Run-Time Engine 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 Run-Time Engine 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 Run-Time Engine 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 Run-Time Engine installer at the end of the installation procedure because the installer may require the system to be restarted.

Unlike in previously released versions of The NI Vision Run-Time Engine, this installer cannot be invoked without an installer dialog prompt. Please contact National Instruments for a revised version which can be invoked silently. The NI Vision Run-Time Engine installer is located at \Run-Time Engine\visionrte.exe, where is the location to which NI Vision is installed, and is the version number of the NI Vision Run-Time Engine installed.

Distributing LabVIEW Applications

The NI Vision Run-Time Engine 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 Run-Time Engine 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 Run-Time Engine.

Distributing LabWindows/CVI Applications

In addition to including the NI Vision Run-Time Engine with the installer, you must include the appropriate LabWindows/CVI Run-Time Engine. 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.

• On systems where the NI Vision Development Module license is expired or invalidly licensed, built Vision executables and DLLs will return licensing error -1074396157 regardless of whether the Vision Run-Time Engine is properly activated.
• The standalone NI Vision Run-Time Engine installer EXE cannot be invoked silently. Refer to the Using the NI Vision Run-Time Engine section for more information.
• 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.
• The following updates and corrections to the IMAQ FPGA Convolute VI documentation:
  
  • The kernel buffer should be transposed and then converted to a 1D array before being passed to the Convolution Kernel parameter. For example:

    1	2	3
    4	5	6
    7	8	9

    Transpose to:

    1	4	7
    2	5	8
    3	6	9

    Convert to 1D array:

    1

    4

    7

    2

    5

    8

    3

    6

    9

  • The VI expects the inverse of the Divider Value input. For example, if the Divider Value is calculated to be 25, take the inverse (1/25 = 0.04) and pass the inverse value to the VI. Refer to the Convolution Kernels topic in the NI Vision Concepts Help for more information.
    
• The following updates and corrections to the IMAQ FPGA Binary Morphology VI and IMAQ FPGA Gray Morphology VI documentation:
  
  • The Structural Element matrix should be transposed and then converted to a 1D array before being passed to the VIs. Refer to the convolution example above for how to transpose and convert the matrix.
  • The VI documentation incorrectly states that "The connected source image for a morphological transformation must have been created with a border capable of supporting the size of the structuring element." The border for the source image is calculated by the VI.
  • For the Erosion and Dilation VI instances, use this formula to calculate the total latency.
    Total Latency = Minimum Latency + (Image Width + 1)((Kernel Size/2) - 0.5) + Kernel Size
  • For the Open and Close VI instances, use this formula to calculate the total latency.
    Total Latency = Minimum Latency + 2*((Image Width+2)((Kernel Size/2) - 0.5) + 3)
    
    
• Vision FPGA Filter VIs with a mask using a 9x9 kernel support image widths up to 2,000 pixels.
• The IMAQ Edge Detection VI and IMAQ FPGA Edge Detection VI produce different results when using gradient filters.
• Specifying a negative angle in the IMAQ Learn Pattern 4 VI causes error -1074395249.
• The AVI2 VIs do not support writing extra data to AVIs.
• Japanese and Simplified Chinese for text overlays are not supported on NI Linux® Real-Time targets.
• 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 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 C or .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.
