Issue Details

When trying to use the LabVIEW Sound & Vibration Toolkit with LabVIEW 2024Q3, you may encounter some VIs (for example, Orbit and Timebase Plot) that report a broken dependency error when placed on the Block Diagram:

 

ROOT CAUSE: Dependency is broken

 

Poly VI 'SoundVib_MCMDisplay.lvlib:SVX Orbit and Timebase Plot.vi': Plymorphic subVI is broken

 

This VI is broken because it depends (possibly indirectly) upon a broken file.  Fix the errors in the other file.  Other errors listed here indicate how the other file is breaking this VI.

 

Broken dependency: SoundVib_Resampling.lvlib:OAT Single Stage Interpolation with IC.vi

 

This error is shown in the following dialog box:

Solution

This is a known issue with the Sound & Vibration Toolkit and is seen from LabVIEW 2023Q3 onwards.  Order Analysis VIs are broken due to a missing dependency in LVASPT_TFS.dll.  Apply the following workaround:

  1. For LabVIEW 32-bit, copy LVASPT_TFA.dll from C:\Program Files\NI\LVAddons\aspt32\1\resource to C:\Windows\SysWOW64
  2. For LabVIEW 64-bit, copy LVASPT_TFA.dll from C:\Program Files\NI\LVAddons\aspt64\1\resource to C:\Windows\System32
  3. Relaunch LabVIEW

Additional Information

The timeline for an official fix is not known at this time.
