NI report and Compact RIO

I can't save my report in the path that I want. The VI is running in the Compact RIO y this is the path that it shows c:\ni-rt\startup\.

 

What I think is if the VI is running in the RIO, so it is triyin to save the report in the RIO and I don't accept paths from my laptop.

 

How can I save the report in my computer??

 

Regards

You are absolutely right. The file I/O is happening on the cRIO since the application is running on the cRIO. You have two options over here. The first would be to save the data on the RIO and then transfer the file over to the host. The second, the recommended one, would be to transfer the data to the host where the data can be logged. There are seven network communication methods outlined by LabVIEW 2009 Real-Time Module Help: Exploring Remote Communication Methods (RT). There are also APIs based on the above methods that may simplify the transfer overhead. An example is the Simple Messaging Reference Library (STM). If you have any follow up questions, post back!
