How to find the IP of all available cRIO on the Network?

[muahang1234]

I would like to figure out a way to get the IP of available cRIO on the Network using LabVIEW. I am not sure how to start or even it is doable. I use a static IP and I only have 1 system so usually it does not concern me but I would like to know if there is sample code or some way to do it.

Hello muahang1234,

The System Configuration palette is where you'll want to look, here are a few documents to get you started:

Welcome to the NI System Configuration API

LabVIEW Help: System Configuration Find (VI)

Hi, 

Please have a look at the NI System Configuration API. The Find.vi in this API lets you discover all hardware connected to your computer or network including cRIOs. You can customize the search by telling the find.vi to look only for cRIOs and not only find their IP but manage software on these cRIOs. Few examples also get installed with this API which will help you get started with this API.

Do let me know if you need more help with this.
