Driver

  • NI-XNET
  • NI CompactRIO 2022 Q4

Issue Details

I am using LabVIEW 2022 64 bit with the cRIO drivers 2022Q4 as according to this article the support for 64 bit LabVIEW was added. I am able to add DAQ C series modules but I am getting unable to add my XNET module 9060 to it. I am also have XNET 2022Q3 installed on both the PC and the cRIO.

Solution

To this date, the XNET compatibility for 64 bit LabVIEW and cRIO, specifically, has yet to be implemented. There are two options: 
  1. Change to the 32 bit version of LabVIEW.
  2. Wait for a new release of the XNET driver that does include the compatibility.
