It was a little hard to follow your message because you left the vowels out of many of your words.  (nt b becz gt ???)

 

But I'll take a shot at trying to answer.

 

Does the other machine have the LabVIEW runtime enginer?  Does it have the DAQmx drivers installed?

 

If you are getting specific error messages, perhaps you can post a screenshot of them or any error codes you may be getting.

Thanks for your response Ravens,Let me explain the problem in deep,

 

Yes it has DAQmx drivers and runtime engine installed,

have already mentioned my error is "The installar is not valid windows installer contact vendor" also my basic problem is that the channels i have made in my VI are not being replicated into the installer version.
so installation fails everytime.

have gone through the building installer settings in deep and found that building an installer and exporting specified  channels of the card on to the installer is not possible in Labview 8.5....plz tell me if i m wrong.............................

What does MAX show as the names of the devices on each machine.

 

If you used a particular device/channel name in your code such as Dev1/AI4 which worked on one machine, but the new machine has the device listed as Dev2/AI4, then you are going to have a problem.

 

Make sure your DAQ devices are named the same way in MAX.

Thanks for your response Ravens Fan,

    The device name in the remote PC (not having LV and MAX) is to my knowledge default NI card no....
It should take which ever name the installer gives it....but anyways in my case its name is the default device no..and i could not name the device in remote pc since i dont install max to it before running the installer. my installer will installs MAX succesfully but could not acquire channels...

What are the device names in each PC?

 

Whatever is the "default device number" in each PC could be different depending on how many other devices are installed on each PC before.

the device name in main pc is Dev1

 

yae, the device name can vary if no.of devices used are more...but then i suppose that the remote PC should have a MAX to configure  the device name and when there is no MAX installed i guess during installation...the favourite device is named Dev1...as it is exported from the main pc installer...

 

 

In my case there's only 1 device in either PC..

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "remote" PC.  Is it its own function PC that you can access like a normal PC if you were standing there with it?

 

I thought you had MAX installed on that one since you said you installed the DAQmx drivers on it.

 

Definitely install MAX on it so you can see what is going on.  Also, so that you can use the MAX test panels to make sure the device is working properly.
