Deploy an EXE Application using Ethernet/IP VIs

Hello,

 

I wrote a VI using some functions part of the package "Ethernet/IP" (that I purchased). In particular, I am using the I/O data functions as I am trying to have a remote PLC controlling my VI and exchanging data. 

My question is, can I build an EXE application of my VI, and deploy it on another PC (that does not have Labview installed)? Do I need a specific run-time for the Ethernet/IP, in addition to the regular LabVIEW run-time?

 

Thank you very much for your help.

 

Mathieu

I'm compiling packed libraries as plugins for an executable. There is a dll that needs to go along (ethernetipinterface.dll), but the compiled code works in the run-time environment.

Hi BossaNovaTech,

 

You can.

If you distribute an application (.exe), you need a LabVIEW runtime of corresponding version. The user will be prompted to  download it from ni.com as well.

If you distribute an installer, runtime will by default be included, so when the user can run the application right away after installing it.
