how to deploy two different startups on cRIO

[vcb]

Hello,

I never needed to do it, but now I have to.

I need to have two versions of startup applications on my cRIO 9075. How can I do it. I tried to create two folders with different versions of applications and simply change the folder name of the application I want to run. Should it run?

Thank you,

Hi Przemek,

I am not sure what the main goal of your application is, and what is your need for two startup applications, so I will make an asumption that you would like to use the cRIO with two different "personalities" for different use cases (if I am mistaken, please indicate that it is so).

In that case probably an online code change design might be just the right fthing for your application. This would encorporate creating a "framework" application, that would be calling the application instance that you would like to use currently.

Hello,

Thank you for reply.

You understand correctely. But I'm thinking about something other- replacing (reneming) startup folder or similar solution. Isn't it possible to have two folders:

startup

startup 1

if I want to run the other programm I change their names:

startup 1

startup

?

Hello,

I think that the best guide for that would be this forum discussion, which covers exactly the same topic and also references the knowledgebase articles which enables you to do this.

Stil my personal preference would be a dynamic code update for the sake of elegance 🙂
