Automotive Diagnostic Command Set 20.0 supports the following operating systems:
1 NI software installs VC2015 Runtime and .NET 4.6.2. Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 require Microsoft updates to support these items. Refer to Microsoft KB2919442 and KB2919355 for more information about how to install these updates.
2 NI software is signed with a SHA-256 certificate. Windows 7 SP1, Windows Embedded Standard 7 SP1, and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 require Microsoft updates to support SHA-256. Refer to Microsoft KB3033929 and KB3125574 for more information about how to install these updates.
Note In 2016 National Instruments dropped support for Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and installations of Windows 7 without any service packs. Automotive Diagnostic Command Set Toolkit will not install or run on an unsupported OS. You cannot deploy or distribute applications that use Automotive Diagnostic Command Set Toolkit to an unsupported OS. Additionally, after installing this version of Automotive Diagnostic Command Set Toolkit, you cannot use any installers built on this computer with any version of LabVIEW, LabWindows™/CVI™, NI TestStand™, or Measurement Studio on an unsupported OS.
For more information about the changes to our OS support, refer to KB 79UC78LS, NI Installer Fails on Windows XP/Vista and Windows Server 2003.
Note Support for Windows 32-bit operating systems may require disabling physical address extension (PAE). To understand how this might affect your system and what actions you might need to take, refer to NI Software Fails When Physical Address Extension is Enabled.
This version of Automotive Diagnostic Command Set software supports the following development environments, including service packs.

Refer to the Automotive Diagnostic Command Set Toolkit Help, accessible from Start»National Instruments»ADCS Documentation, for more information about Automotive Diagnostic Command Set Toolkit.
The Automotive Diagnostic Command Set Help is the primary reference document for Automotive Diagnostic Command Set. This manual includes an introduction to diagnostic protocols. It also includes information about how to get started with application development and a complete reference for all Automotive Diagnostic Command Set functions.
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 4.6.2, 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 4.6.2 separately before you install NI software.
For more information about automating the installation of NI products, refer to Automating an Installer in the NI Package Manager manual.
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.
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.
If you are using NI hardware that is supported by NI-XNET, it is recommended that you use the latest supported version of NI-XNET with Automotive Diagnostic Command Set.
CAN FD features are only supported with NI-XNET version 17.0.1 or later.
NI recommends the following maximum message length for CAN FD based on the system RAM size.
