Good day, I am working on a project with the following architecture: Windows PC/LabVIEW 8.5.1runs a graphical user interface Compact RIO cRIO 9014/LabVIEW RT 8.5.1runs a time critical RT-host program that feeds data to the FPGA FPGAruns a time critical engine that outputs the data received from the RT host at a specific rate Right now, I have to manually start the PC application and the cRIO application manually. The FPGA is loaded programmatically by the cRIO RT-host. I would like to have the PC application loading and starting the cRIO RT-host automatically. I do not want to build a standalone application that starts up automatically on the cRIO. I have done that successfully on previous versions of LabVIEW. From the documentation I saw, it should be possible to open a reference to the remote application instance (on cRIO) an then open a reference to the RT-host VI on that instance then use the VI reference to load/run the VI. The problem is that when I try to open the VI reference on the PC, LabVIEW tries to open the reference as if the VI was local to the PC instead of remote. I get "error 1445:Open VI Reference no longer matches VI in memory by filename. A filename is no longer sufficient because the full name of a VI now includes any owning library". I would appreciate any help. Michel

Hi Michel,

Sorry, here it is (Three main VI's) in LabVIEW 8.5.
