Use the Add Targets and Devices dialog box to add a target or device to a LabVIEW project. Right-click the project root and select New»Targets and Devices from the shortcut menu to display the Add Targets and Devices dialog box. When you add an RT target to a project, LabVIEW creates an item in the Project Explorer window to represent the RT target. If the RT target you add supports other targets, you can right-click the RT target and select New»Targets and Devices from the shortcut menu to add a target under the existing RT target. For example, if you have an FPGA target installed in an RT Series PXI controller, you can add the FPGA target under the RT PXI controller.

Using Palettes with Multiple RT Targets

LabVIEW loads a separate palette set for each RT target. If you have VIs open on multiple RT targets in a project, multiple palette sets exist in memory. When you switch between RT targets, LabVIEW attempts to map each pinned palette to its counterpart in the active RT target. If a pinned palette does not have a counterpart, LabVIEW displays the top-level palette for the active RT target.
