Convert LabVIEW 8 files to LabVIEW 2023 Q3

[gdeters]

I have all of my LabVIEW VI package manager blocked by access rights on Company computer. I need some LabVIEW 8 Vi converted to LabVIEW 2023 Q3. Last time it took over two weeks o get access to the NI package Manager. I do not expect a shorter time frame.

Original Source is

• Software Downloads: https://legacy.dataforth.com/5Bisolynx_download.aspx#

Then Software samples 

Then LabVIEW VI's

Labview Library 8 is attached as well

THank you for any assistnce in advance...

Hi Gerald,

you can open all the VIs using your LV2023 installation. No need to ask for conversion just for that!

You will have more problems because of the CINs (Code Interface Nodes) in those drivers, they aren't recommended anymore since about 20 years…

What would you use in place of that. I cannot find any modbus on my libraries and cannot get my add ons to work... Any suggestons.

Thank you in advance.

To replace those CINs you need to ask the manufacturer for detailed documentation on their devices and their communication protocol…

• Why do you look for "modbus on my libraries"? Did you install any Modbus libraries from VIPM?
• Which "add ons" do you need to "get to work"? what have you tried and where are you stuck?

I got the Manual attached; I finally was able to get my company approval to download the add on software for Modbus. So, I have the information, I just need the Time. Is there one Modbus that is better than others or are all pretty much the same? If anyone has any sample code close otherwise, I will work through it.

Thank you in advance for any advice or help.... Have a great day.
