Use of Priority for Singleton Backend Plugins
Singleton backend plugins allow only a single instance of the plugin to run. As a result, you must set the priority of a singleton backend plugin to determine which instance the Web UI chooses.
Use the Weight attribute to set the priority of backend plugins for the Web UI.
Use this attribute as follows:
[Weight(priority)]
The priority for the default implementation of prioritized backend plugins is 0.5. NI recommends using the range [0, 1] for priority, though negative numbers are allowed; priority has a double data type. Higher values correspond to higher priority.
