How to programmatically deploy target vi or exe from host exe

I have ran the 'new RT project' wizard to creat a simple app. that talks from a target PXI chassis thru the network using is shared variables to my desktop. It all work fine when I deploy manually each .vi and run it.

What would be the correct setup to automate the host vi to call target vi ( and its support vi ) without using the project manager?

THanks!

Hello Cortes,

You can programmatically call any VI on a remote computer as long as the VI Server is configured to allow the connection from your IP Address and if it allows a connection to the VI you are trying to call.  You can then deploy an executable to the Real-Time system.  If it is not a configured as a start-up executable, you can run it using the VI Server. 

Here is a link to an example program that runs a VI stored in an executable on the hard drive of the Real-Time system.

I hope this helps you.  If you have specific questions about this process, the LabVIEW help has some resources and you can always ask us here at the forum.
