Remote/local for VXI-11?

How do I select the remote/local state of a VXI-11 instrument in LabVIEW?

I see in the VXI-11 spec that that's handled on the RPC level - i.e. not a simple command, as it would be for a serial device. I need the equivalent of the "VISA GPIB Control REN" VI.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Controls the state of the GPIB REN line, and optionally places the device associated with the given session in remote or local mode. For GPIB INTFC sessions, only the modes dealing directly with the REN line iteself are valid (in other words, the modes dealing with device addressing are invalid).

For USB INSTR sessions, this operation and all of the defined modes are valid.
