How do I access a MAX configuration from another computer setup?

I have a computer set up with a GPIB card and PCI3036E card which I can see through MAX. Unfortunately I am writing the LabVIEW application for this setup on another computer on a seperate network. Is there any way to fool my computer into "seeing" the MAX channels setup from the other computer so I can use the DAQ Assistant in LabVIEW 7 to setup measurement on the existing channels?

Thanks,
Neil

Neil,

You can use RDA (Remote Device Access). This can easily be set up in MAX under the folder labeled "Remote Systems".

The following Knowledge Base articles have more details on what is RDA and how to use it.
