I am having an InsightCM application running on my cRIO 9039(Sync).
I would like to utilize this cRIO to exchange file with a computer.
I have tried a couple of methods:
1) Using WebDav.vi: I employed this NI certified example
https://forums.ni.com/t5/Example-Programs/WebDAV-Put-and-Get-Function-in-LabVIEW/ta-p/3529696
I have attempted in both cases:
- Disable RT startup on my cRIO and run this example only. But it failed.
- Copy this vi to my InsightCM main.vi but it also failed. I bet I have to wrap this webdav.vi to have it fully integrated into the Insight application. I could not find any information about this wrapper.
2) Using Samba: the problem I encountered is described in this post

So far I have not been successful to mount the Window folder to cRIO.
3) Using Webdav to transfer file with window explorer:
I can actually transfer files from my computer to cRIO and vice versa. But now my cRIO is now in Install Mode; my application is not running. I have removed files I transferred into cRIO and restarted the cRIO but it did not work. I have to reinstall the application by using RAD.
I wonder what is the best method to transfer files (via Linux RT) while InsightCM is still running in parallel.
This has been a torturing issue for awhile. I have contacted different NI engineer. But there is not definite solution.
I am looking forward to any opinion on this.
Thank you and much appreciated.
