Simplest LabVIEW method to pass data to another application

I have a few CompactDAQ systems (9188 chassis with thermocouple, voltage and digital input modules) that I'd like to interface with Indusoft SCADA software.  I'm looking for the simplest, most reliable method for LabVIEW to do nothing more than pass the unscaled data along to Indusoft. It looks like there are a lot of options for doing this, so I'm looking for some advice. Basically, I want to get the LabVIEW application set up once and forget about it, and do all my display, analysis, graphing and report generation using Indusoft. That's why I'm looking for something simple and reliable.

 

By the way, the hardware side of things is pretty small scale. The process I'm measuring is very slow (I'm currently acquiring at 1 Hz), ad there are fewer than 100 inputs per system.

 

Thanks in advance.

The simplest is most always to write to a spreadsheet file. Can Scada read measurement files?

At 1 Hz you should have little trouble using shared variables. They are about as simple as you can get.
