I own a cRIO 9012 and I am trying to deploy a headless program to run and collect data onto a usb flash drive. Right now I have a .vi that I can run from the computer and it travels through the cRIO and works perfectly. (I have not yet had it try to write to the flash drive). My problem is deploying it to the cRIO as a standalone application. I have never done this before, so I have no idea where to start. Do I need to make a special type of vi? Or can I somehow get my current vi to run on the cRIO upon startup? I do not want to use a computer, the application must run on its own.

I am using Labview 32 bit 2013.

Any suggestions of where to start?

Hello

You need to create a build (rtexe) - it's pretty easy, and follows the same procedure as when you create a regular build for any LabVIEW application. Open you project, look at the bottom under your target lib. and find build specifications. There you right-click and setup a build. Once you have done that you basically just rightclick your build and press "Set as startup" and you're good to go. 🙂
