Targeting LabVIEW Real-Time to a Platform

Targeting LabVIEW Real-Time to the cFP-21xx

© National Instruments Corporation
This chapter contains specific information about targeting
LabVIEW Real-Time to the cFP-21xx module, network options for
restricting access to the module, embedding LabVIEW Real-Time
applications on the module, and launching embedded applications
when the module starts up. For general LabVIEW Real-Time programming
information, refer to the LabVIEW Help.
You can target LabVIEW Real-Time to the cFP-21xx or to the host PC.
When you select a target platform other than the host PC, the
Real-Time Development System downloads any LabVIEW Real-Time
application you subsequently run to the selected target platform. Refer
to the LabVIEW Help for more information about the
Real-Time Development System.
When you target LabVIEW Real-Time to the cFP-21xx, you can run
LabVIEW Real-Time applications on the controller. However, when
targeted to the cFP-21xx, LabVIEW Real-Time lacks some features found
in LabVIEW for Windows because the controller does not have all the
software of a PC. The following LabVIEW functions are not supported in
LabVIEW Real-Time when targeted to the cFP-21xx:
• ActiveX
• Front panel datalogging
• Dialog boxes
• Printing
• Programmatic menus
• Front panel Web publishing
• NI driver software for non-FieldPoint hardware
