Instalando LabVIEW para FRC (LabVIEW apenas)

../../../_images/ni_logo.png

Note

Esta instalação é para times que programam em LabVIEW ou usam o NI Vision Assistant apenas. Times que utilizam C++ e Java que não estão utilizando estes recursos não precisam instalar a partir do DVD e devem prosseguir para Instalando FRC Game Tools.

O tempo para download e instalação varia muito de acordo com as especificações de conexão do computador, no entanto, note que esse processo envolve o download e a instalação de um arquivo grande e provavelmente levará pelo menos uma hora para ser concluído.

Desinstale as Versões Antigas (Recomendado)

Note

Se você deseja continuar utilizando cRIOs você precisará manter uma instalação do LabVIEW para FRC 2014. A licença para o LabVIEW para FRC 2014 foi estendida. Embora essas versões possam coexistir em um único computador, essa não é uma configuração extensivamente testada.

Antes de instalar a nova versão do LabVIEW, é recomendado remover as versões antigas. A nova versão provavelmente coexistirá com a versão antiga, porém todos os testes foram feitos apenas com a FRC 2020. Certifique-se de fazer um backup de qualquer código do time localizado no diretório “User\LabVIEW Data” antes de desinstalar. Em seguida clique em Iniciar >> Adicionar ou Remover Programas. Localize “National Instruments Software” e selecione “Uninstall”.

Selecione Componentes para Desinstalar

Na caixa de diálogo exibida, selecione todas as entradas. A maneira mais fácil de fazer isso é desmarcar a caixa de seleção “Products Only” e marcar a caixa de seleção à esquerda de “Name”. Clique em “Remove”. Aguarde o desinstalador concluir e, se solicitado, reinicie o computador.

Warning

Essas instruções assumem que nenhum outro software da National Instruments esteja instalado. Se você tiver outro software da National Instruments instalado, é necessário desmarcar o software que não deve ser desinstalado.
