DTM Carnegie -
I must assume you are using LabVIEW 6.1. There is not a single answer that would apply to you. It purely depends on your application. I have attached a link below that should help you identify what transfer methods you should use.
Your options include, but are not limited to: FTP, TCP, UDP, and DataSocket
Using these methods you would have to create your own solution in LabVIEW 6.1. However, in LabVIEW 7.0 and 7.1 a utility called the "Remote Communication Wizard" was designed to do just that. It uses a more deterministic approach to transferring data between your Host PC and your RT Controller. The wizard can be used to generate code that will perform the communciaton for you.
What Methods of Communication Can I Use Between My Embedded Real-Time VIs and My Host PC VIs?Regards,
