You can view the front panel of a VI running on an RT target from a computer using LabVIEW. You must enable the Web Server on the RT target, add the VI to the Web Server Visible VIs list, and add the computer to the access list of the target to allow users to access the front panel of a VI remotely.

Complete the following steps to enable the Web Server on the RT target and add VIs to the Web Server Visible VIs list:

  1. Right-click an RT target in the Project Explorer window and select Properties from the shortcut menu to display the RT target Properties dialog box.
  2. Click Web Server in the Category list.
  3. Place a checkmark in the Enable Remote Panel Server checkbox to enable the Web Server.
  4. Enter the directory that you want to use as the Web Server root directory in the Root Directory text box. The Web Server root directory is the top directory in a Web Server file system.
  5. In the Visible VIs section, enter the filename of VIs in memory on the RT target that you want to add to the Visible VIs list and then click the Add button.
    Note   If you deployed a VI to the RT target before enabling the Web Server, you must redeploy the VI to access the front panel.
  6. Click the OK button to close the RT target Properties dialog box.
