This chapter introduces the VI Server and provides an activity that explains
how to use it within BridgeVIEW. The VI Server allows you to control
when a VI is loaded into memory, run, and unloaded from memory. The VI
Server also allows you to accomplish the following dynamically:
• Control many VI properties
• Monitor the status of VI execution (running or idle)
• Monitor the status of a VI front panel (closed, open, or active)
You can reach the VI Server functions through the Functions Palette from
the Block Diagram window. The Application Control subpalette is shown
below.
