Build a myRio Project As An Exe

   I am trying to build a myRio project as an exe. I go to tools for the button that allows me to build the file as an exe, but it is greyed out. The program works and there are no broken wires. Are you not allowed to make myRio projects into exe's? If I can't build it as an exe this way, is there another way?

 

Thank you,

What exactly are you trying to do?

 

If the program is something that's meant to be deployed to the myRIO, it wouldn't make sense to build it as an exe. 

 

It sounds like you want to interact with the program.  This is done easily by correcting your code.  If you have a UI that you want to run on the myRIO, you're doing it wrong.  The myRIO should NEVER have a UI.  UIs break the determinism you'll enjoy in a RT system.  You'll want to do something with either buffering or shared variables.  With these options, you can make a VI for your host pc to interact with the RT program running on the myRIO.  This also makes it easy to build the host pc's VI into the exe you desire.  It will still interact with the RT code, assuming you program it properly.
