Send orders from C++ program to Labview...

Hi,
I'm a student who have to make connection between a c++ program
running on Linux and a labview program running on Windows.
The c++ program has to give orders to labview, such as "start data
acquisition", "stop", "pause"... through the Internet thanks to TCP/IP
and then labview must run these orders.
The labview program already exists. It drives a laser probe.

In fact I don't know very well Labview and that's why I want to know
how I have to modify the labview program to make it run in "slave
mode" with the c++ program...

Linux/c++ <----------------------------------> Windows/labview
client TCP/IP server
orders -->

May I use a dll and how? Has a lab
view component already exist??

Please help me...

Thank you

Hello SebGAM,

LabVIEW has a built in set of VIs for TCP/IP communication. Please see the links below for more information on working with TCP/IP in LabVIEW.

Good luck with development.
