Remotely using an NI controller card?


Recommended Posts

I have a test system with an NI-7340 motion control card and a 3-axis robot. I'd like to do dev work on my computer but need to execute code on the test computer. Since I am frequently executing code during development I was wondering if there's a way to expose the motion controller in the test computer as a network resource available to my dev computer? I couldn't find anything along those lines in NI-MAX. I looked at Remote Front Panels but that appears to be geared toward finished applications rather than developing them. Remote desktop is an option, but its too slow for working in a graphic intensive dev environment. Any ideas?

If that device was supported by traditonal DAQ then RDA may help.

I spose installing ETS on the remote computer is out of the question?

Dunno... what's ETS?

By "that device" I presume you mean the 7340 controller card? And, um... what's RDA?

I'm feeling rather :wacko: right now...
