Product Security and Critical Updates

Visit ni.com/security to view and subscribe to receive security notifications about National Instruments products. Visit ni.com/critical-updates for information about critical updates from National Instruments.

IVI Compliance Package Functionality

NI-RFSG no longer installs IVI Compliance Package. NI-RFSG supports IVI configuration and runtime, but no longer supports the following features:

• LabVIEW and CVI IVI class driver APIs for developing IVI interchangeable applications
• IVI Class Simulation drivers
• IVI-COM Adapters
  

If you want to use the above features, you must install IVI Compliance Package separately, either from ni.com/downloads or from the NI Device Drivers 2018 DVD.

Behavior Changes

The following are behavior changes in NI-RFSG 18.2 from NI-RFSG 18.1:

• NI Script Editor is no longer installed with NI-RFSG.
• The NI-RFSG Express VIs are now obsolete and are no longer installed.
• The NI-RFSG RF Out LO Export Enabled property no longer requires the NI-RFSA LO Out Export Configure From RFSA property to be set to Enabled. NI-RFSG can change the export state of NI-RFSA without an open NI-RFSA session on the PXIe-5840. Ensure the NI-RFSA LO out export is generating a useful signal before using that signal for NI-RFSG operations.

Automating the Installation of NI Products

You can automate the installation of most NI products using command-line arguments to suppress some or all of the installer user interface and dialog boxes.

If the NI product you are installing uses Microsoft .NET 4.0, the .NET installer may run before any NI software installs and may require a reboot before the installation of NI software begins. To avoid a .NET reboot, install .NET 4.0 separately before you install NI software.

For more information about automating the installation of NI products, refer to the following KnowledgeBase articles:

• For more information about silent installations of individual NI products, refer to Customize and Automate Installation of a Single Installer.
• For more information about silent installations of NI products in a suite, such as NI Developer Suite, refer to Customize and Automate Installation of a Suited Installer.
• To determine what version of NI Installers your product contains, refer to Determine Type and Version of My National Instruments Installer.
  

Using NI Software with Microsoft Windows 10

Microsoft Windows 10 is the latest version of the Windows operating system and features significant changes compared to previous versions. Windows 10 introduces several new capabilities and also combines features from both Windows 7 and Windows 8. For more information about NI support for Windows 10, visit ni.com/windows10.

Using NI Software with Microsoft Windows 8.1

When you install NI software on Microsoft Windows 8.1, you will notice a few additional tiles in the Apps view, including shortcuts to NI application software products such as NI LabVIEW, Measurement & Automation Explorer (NI MAX), and NI Launcher. For more information about NI support for Windows 8.1, visit ni.com/windows8.

NI-RFSG Drops Support for Windows 7 (64-Bit) and Windows Server 2008 R2 in 2021
