Issue with variable deployment on Ethernet RIO

[sleb]

Hi,

I am using an Ethernet RIO (NI 9149) with Scan Engine for an application (LabVIEW 2017). When I run the code from my LabVIEW project, the variables are deployed correctly to the Ethernet RIO. However, when I run it as an executable, the variables are not deployed (there is no Deployment Progress window). Is there any way to get my executable file to deploy the variables?

I also had an issue when deploying from my project (right click on Eth RIO target => Deploy All). Most variables were deployed correctly, while several were not deployed at all. I tried to deploy the variables from a specific module only, but it didn't solve the issue. I had to select Undeploy from the module and then Deploy to get it to work. Is there a specific reason why this happened or could this be a bug?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Hi,

The following link talk about configure application builder to build executable deploying variables, maybe it can help you.

Thank you for your reply.

However, I do not have any library to deploy. I am only using Scan Engine to access the shared variable on the Ethernet Rio.

Is there any other way to get an executable to deploy variables on startup?

In fact you only need Shared Variable Engine running to read a I/O Variable from Ethernet RIO.

Where is this exe running ? RT or Host? 

How is the Scan Engine setup? 

Are you able to see the variable in NI Distributed System Manager?
