Hello, a rather general question but I hope to get some recommendation. I really searched a lot but somehow lost my orientation. I am building a labview2013 executable which can be used on a local PC as any normal programm. But I also want to be able to access the labview executable from a remote PC and set controls and run VIs. The controlling application on the remote PC will be developed in C# (VS2010 or VS2013) So I'd like to ask which is the best way to remote control a labview executable over the network with C#? Kind regards, Ralf

Hi Pechmann, I can suggest using network communication (UDP, TCP) to send commands to your LabVIEW program( acting as server) and to send data to your client/remote control…

Good thing software requirements never change
