The remote panel control manager is not used to control VIs on a different computer. It is used to manage the clients that are connected and would normally be run on the server pc where the remote panel VI is actually running. To remotely control a VI, the VI has to be on a pc with the web server turned on with the correct options , the Web Publishing tool has to be used to create an HTML document with embedded VI, and the VI has to be running. Then you would start IE, go to the URL of the remote PC, and then request control.

Besides the remote panel option, you could easily use datasocket to publish data to the datasocket server and have a datasocket client retrieve the data at just about any rate you want. There's several examples of datasocket rea
der and writers that ship with LabVIEW.
