How to deploy Labview build with a CD ?

[Clegro974]

Hello,

I am in a somewhat complicated situation. I need to deploy my LabVIEW build on my cRIO 9040 without connecting a PC or an external hard drive to it. I am only allowed to deploy my build with a CD.

Is this possible?

How could I proceed?

Thank you for your answers.

Does your cRIO come with an internal CD drive?

As no external drives are allowed it seems impossible to me...

Simple solution: connect the cRIO with your development laptop!

Hello, 

Thanks for you answer.

Unfortunately, I’m working in a restricted environment where I’m not allowed to connect my dev computer to my cRIO. 

Other question, would it be possible to deploy my code using a TCP/IP connection ? 

Thank you for your help

This still counts as "connect your cRIO to your development computer" IMHO…

They could mean "Don't connect with usb" in case the computer is infected or something.

Exactly. 

My only problem here is that my development computer in not considered as secure. 

If it is technically possible to deploy my build through TCP/IP, I would be allowed to do it from a controlled environment with Windows VM that my company set up.

Anyone can see a solution ? 

Thanks for your answers !

That should be possible, yes. Just add the resource to your project with the right IP and you should be able to Deploy to it. I'm not very experienced with cRio though, so hopefully someone validates/corrects me. 🙂

That's how I deployed to cRIO for years: using a TCP/IP connection…

The main point/problem is to be able to contact the cRIO from outside the lab/company through several (?) firewalls!

As long as you have an environment that can access the cRIO target via ethernet, you can Deploying a LabVIEW Real-Time Startup Executable Without the LabVIEW Development Environment. All you need is just Tools Available for File Transfer/Access on NI Linux Real-Time Targets
