control NI Spy remotely

[052ftemu]

Hi,

I would like to create an event log of the commands send to/ received from an instrument.

I already created log files in the following way. I appended the commands send to/ received from the instrument to a text file...

But I think there is an easier solution like controlling NI Spy remotely?!

Or is there a function available which listens to a Port or anything like that? 

Thank you

NI Spy has an option to start capturing as soon as it's started. So, you could launch NI Spy using the System Exec function and it will start capturing immediately. Will this work for you?
