Network Streams Fail When Using Different LabVIEW Versions

Updated Jun 6, 2025

Issue Details

I have some programs developed in LabVIEW that uses network streams, the VIs work correctly between equal LabVIEW versions but when they are different versions the VIs fails. 

Solution

The LabVIEW versions must match in order to use network streams. If you require support for network communication between different LabVIEW versions, you will need to switch to another protocol that supports communication between different LabVIEW versions, like TCP/IP or Network Shared Variables.
