CPS Action Assistant using LabVIEW and VI Package Manager

[Alex-D]

Overview
This VI demonstrates provides a way to perform batch actions on items within your active project.

 
Description
Here is a brief description of the example:

Using VI Server properties this VI uses the Project Tree and the names you specify to perform one of three actions: Find, Run, or Deploy.

Find: Performs only the locate operation and returns a reference to the specified item.

Run: This is the same as opening the VI and clicking the Run Button.

Deploy: This is the same as right clicking the item and selecting Deploy. This can automate the deployment of libraries or VIs which must be present on the target before the main VI is executed.

This example is designed to be used as a starting point. If you add functionality feel free to update and I will review the changes and then publish it.
