example code labview rt8.0

Does example code exist to connect to a remote PXI chassis running LV RT 8.0? 
 
I would like to access a DAQmx compatablie card using an executable running on a laptop.  The laptop would be connected to the PXI chassis using a TCIP crossover cable.  The executable would use the remote DAQmx card on the PXI RT chassis.  This is a piece of cake to do in LV 7.1. In LV 7.1 when the executable is launched on the laptop, a choice of execution target is given.  I can select Labview windows, or "150.254.0.2" real time controller.  When "150.254.0.2" is selected, the application loads via TCIP to the PXI controller and runs.  The front pannel VI stays open on the laptop allowing the button pushing or text entering, whatever is needed to make the program happy. This is then run on the PXI controller with no problems.
 
 
 
 
How to do in LV 8.0 please?  Thanks.

Hello Takata:

You are right. This option existed in 7.1 but no longer exists in 8.0. This is due to the massive internal differences between the way 8.0 and 7.1 work. As of right now there is no example code that exists currently to do this. We are working on a utility that will accomplish this and will notify as soon as it is complete. However, as of now the same thing can be accomplished by using FTP and VI Server. Basically a wrapper VI around the executable that would download the files to the target and run them dynamically.

We apologize for the inconvenience related to this issue and are trying our best to come up with a solution soon.

Best Regards,
Jaideep
