S7 Runtime setup

[iwilliamsd2]

I have bought the S7 Toolkit - a development license and three run time licenses. I have program running on the machine with the development license installed on it successfully. I now need to deploy it to another machine which has LabVIEW run time installed so it will run a compiled version of the application. I am using a separate machine to do the compilation - do I need to transfer the development license onto the machine doing the compilation? Otherwise all the S7 subVIs are broken and compilation fails.

Hi,

yes - the development license is mandatory to be installed on that machine on which you want to build a LabVIEW executable.

It is also mandatory in order to debug LabVIEW code from within the LabVIEW development system.

Thank you. I had relicensed the development machine and I could then produce executables that run on the other machine.

I just need to get the correct addressing to the PLC now. But I'm getting there..
