Solution
IAK files store all of the configuration information for FieldPoint hardware. The IAK file that LabVIEW uses to access your FieldPoint configuration depends on how you're using LabVIEW (Project Explorer, VI or executable) and which FieldPoint VI you're using to communicate with your hardware (IO Control, Get Configuration, or Legacy VIs). The table below describes which IAK file is accessed in each situation.
| | Project Explorer | Stand Alone VI | VI as an EXE |
| FieldPoint IO VI | IAK file associated with the project | IAK file that was last opened | IAK file distributed with the EXE |
| FieldPoint Get Configuration Info VI | IAK file associated with the project | IAK file that was last opened | IAK file distributed with the EXE |
| Other legacy VIs (FieldPoint Open, FieldPoint Create Tag, FieldPoint Read, FieldPoint Write, etc.) | IAK file that was last opened | IAK file that was last opened | IAK file that was last opened |
