Third party driver installation in cRIO

Dear Community,

unfortunatelly previous posts on this topic did not help so I am making this new thread. 

I am trying to communicate with a USB device using my cRIO-9203. The USB device needs the CP2102 USB to UART Bridge control drivers to operate (also in attachment). Notice that my VI works on the host computer once I install such drivers. In the host (Windows), once the drivers are installed I have no problem in communicating with the device using the basic VISA architecture. So the VI or the communication with the device are not issues here.

Now I would like to communicate to this device via the USB port in the cRIO. I can see both in NI MAX and in the Linux System Configurator that the device is recognised. 

The question is: how do I install the drivers in the cRIO?

I tried using the automatic driver search that is possible in the project/vi, but this drivers are not recognised in the search. Somehow, I need to open this exe file in the cRIO (e.g. via the system configurator or via the MAX) or if someone can show me how to make an operating library using the provided dll and sys files that might also be an option (but I have never done it or have experience with that in practice).

Thanks
