Deploying PDA Applications from LabVIEW (PDA Module)

Complete the following steps to deploy a PDA application to a PDA target.

  1. Select the build specification you want to use under the PDA target to which you want to deploy the PDA application.
  2. Right-click and select Deploy from the shortcut menu to build the PDA VI into a PDA application and deploy the PDA application to the PDA target.

Palm OS LabVIEW prompts you to press the HotSync button on the PDA cradle to download the .prc file to the Palm OS device.

Note  The PDA Module does not support deploying Palm OS PDA applications from LabVIEW through a USB connection. If you are using USB, manually download the PDA application using a Palm OS PDA target and HotSync.
Note  If you are using a Palm OS simulator, you must configure the simulator to use a serial port.

Pocket PC LabVIEW does not download DLLs to the PDA target. If the PDA application calls a DLL that does not already exist on the Pocket PC device, you must use the PDA device to download the DLL file. You do not need to download source files (.c, .cpp) or static libraries (.lib).

Tip  You also can deploy a PDA application by clicking the Run button in a PDA VI.
