how to synchronize RT target with host VI

[krivan]

I am running a code on an RT target that produces approximately 7MB in every 1024ms. If I send this data package through TCP from the RT target to the host computer, how I can be sure that the host VI reads its network variable exactly at that moment when it is sent over?

 At the moment I run the application in two steps, at first I start the host VI and then I start the RT target VI.

Is there a more sophisticated method to run the RT application+host VI programmatically? Also, how to synchronize the RT target with the host VI?

Thanks,

Krivan

If you can use LV2010 then use Network Streams, otherwise consider making your own tcpip communications vi.  I would package up the data with a SOF,Payload, EOF, CRC and then require the receiver to return a verification message to complete the transfer.
