Set clock LVRT8.0

[TRW Design TEE]

I am "upgrading" from real time 7.1.  To 8.0.  I use a headless PXI chassis with a RT-8145 controller.  The unit is used to collect data from vehicles under rough road conditions. 

One requirement I have is to set the clock on the headless PXI system.  Currently I set the time by running an executable on a laptop and downloading this to the PXI.  This application then runs on the PXI and I can configure an set the clock via a remote connection on the Laptop. 

How can this be done in LV8?  I do not have space to put an executable on the PXI to boot at startup.  My perferred method is to download the file  to the PXI (when the startup application is not running) make the changes an quit the aplication freeing up memory for the PXI controller to save more data files.  (The 8145 controller uses compact flash as the hard drive [512Mb] and is limited to running a program and saving data no larger than 128Mb [controller RAM size] .

With this setup i can aquire about ten triggers of data collection.

See the application note touting labview real time feature to do this (for Lv7.1).

Greetings!
    Thanks for the post. While creating the application builder  (Real time application)
1) You can choose the target destination path while building the application builder in the options for destinations.
2) In the source file settings you can choose to have it run when opened , or if you want to include or exclude in the startup.exe.

I am assuming you are looking for a way to run the program without the target taking up the space when it runs the executable. Please let me know if this is what you are looking for. If not , please elaborate and I will be more than happy to address the issue.
Hope this helps, good luck
