Can I include NI-DAQmx as an additional installer with the stand-alone application I have created in LabVIEW?
Many deployed LabVIEW and NI LabWindows/CVI data acquisition applications do not require support for all of the functionality of the NI-DAQmx driver and utilities. With NI-DAQmx version 8.6 and newer, you can deploy five different runtime versions of NI-DAQmx, ranging from the full-featured driver to a size-optimized runtime engine. With NI-DAQmx, you can either build the different runtime engines yourself while building an installer for your LabVIEW application, or you can download one of the different runtimes from ni.com. The following sections describe the five different NI-DAQmx runtime engines and provide possible use cases for each version.
