I've got a VI that needs to run on the RT PXI, using Labview 2014.
This VI has a front end where the user changes values etc, so it must be visible on the desktop PC, connector to the PXI via ethernet.
Using Labview 7, this exe was created using application builder, and at the time of execution, it was called as: myvi.exe - target 192.168.1.1
I've created a labview project on the desktop, with the VI located on the PXI tree.
Need to guidance as how to create an EXE for this VI, so the user can simply click on it located on the desktop, and it will run on the PXI while the user can modify values on the front end gui.
Thanks

The following document descrbes how you can programatically call the VI in the RT target, which would be part of what you need here.

If you would also like to have acess to the RT program in the PXI it would be better to have a host VI running in the PC that communicates with RT program, since RT executalbes don't handle a front panel.
