5.   Driver Usage

 

Unzip the zipped distribution file.  This will result in a single top-level folder.  Place this folder in <LabVIEW Installation Directory>\instr.lib (if LabVIEW was installed in the default location, <LabVIEW Installation Directory> will be something like ‘C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Labview x’, where x refers to the LabVIEW version number).
