Building Startup.exe for Compact Flash Card (D Drive) on cFP-2020 & cFP-2120

I have built/compiled an application for one of my compact Field Point controllers. I targeted the compilation for D:/startup/startup.exe (with the 😧 drive being the compact flash card)..

After adjusting the realtime options on the controller to find the startup.exe in this new location, the application works without any issues.

When I copy startup.exe over to other cFP units (to the same location / same realtime options - d:/startup/startup.exe) the serial port section of my compiled application stops working (it works fine on the orginal cFP unit).

Anyone else been having this problem?

If I compile the above application for the C Drive (C:/ni-rt/startup/startup.exe) and copy it over to other cFP Controllers, the serial ports work correctly...

Barty,

I was wondering if you are using any alias for the serial name or have some other setting on your original program. May be can you try to copy the .iak file to the cFP modules except and modify the IP address accordingly. Please let me know the progress.
