This page gives the starting versions of support for NI Vision Development Module (VDM) and Vision Acquisition Software (VAS) 64-bit Programming Language. Reference this information to ensure you install the correct versions of your development environment, toolkit or module, and drivers during installation or setup, or when upgrading or updating your system or software. Using incompatible versions may result in errors, or missing palettes or functions.
Use this table to see the earliest version support for VDM and VAS drivers when working with a 64-bit development environment.

1 LabVIEW 2009 64-bit or later does have native support for Vision Development Module (VDM) 2009 or later and Vision Acquisition Software (VAS) August 2009 or later.
2 LabWindows CVI and Microsoft Visual C/C++ applications started having 64-bit support with Vision Development Module 2015 SP1 and Vision Acquisition Software February 2016 but only for the IMAQdx driver.
*The NI-IMAQ driver is not fully supported at this time but basic 64-bit C support for IMAQ is installed publicly at the next location: C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\Shared\ExternalCompilerSupport\C\lib64\msvc There is no 64-bit support for any of the drivers nor VDM in .NET languages.
