System Variables for VBAI

Status: New

Please include more default VBAI System Variables.

Common and useful system variables would include:

1) Disk Space Remaining on Target default volume (or by drive letter would be even better) in MB

     Target_C_Free = 2203

     Target_U_Free = 435000

... VBAI crashes systems too often when people fill up the hard drive.  Currently the only way to prevent this is with call LabVIEW steps even though the info is already in VBAI under the Target Info menu, just not in the system variables.

2)  Target Temperatures (very useful for NI targets but could be skipped for PC targets)

3)  CPU Utilization %

4)  Pretty much anything you already have in System Info under NIMax would be very useful ... Port IP Addresses, MAC Addresses, Firmware Versions, OS , serial #,  network devices, etc. 

 

 

No need to kill the CPU updating these every 10msec. 

 

5)  And finally an "on event" Boolean flag to snapshot the event log into a string array would be fantastic for troubleshooting.  Currently I can only see the event log when in Config mode which isn't nearly as useful.
