Installing network streams with runtime LV only (NI Max)

[bokorpet]

Hi all,

does anybody know how to install network streams on a target (using NI Max) without having the real-time module installed on the host?

We're developing LV executables for our users who get a virgin cRIO and the executables (using netowrk streams).

It's a bit of a chicken-egg problem: once network streams are installed on the cRIO, the executables can be updated on the target using NI Max only (without real-time module installation).

Thanks,

Peter

You might want to look into the Replication And Deployment Utility.  With that tool, you make images of your cRIOs and then depoly those images.

I see that copying images is an option.

Another approach I found is this (keyword: "Required software set"): http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370622K-01/lvrthowto/rt_building_rt_app/

What I'd like to do is to include the set components (e.g., network streams) in the compiled target code. Do you think it works?

Thanks,

Peter
