Complete the following steps to add a new entry to the Visible VIs list.
- Select Tools»Options to display the Options dialog box.
- Select Web Server: Visible VIs from the Category list of the Options dialog box.
- Enter the name of the VI or directory path in the Visible VI text box. You also can use wildcards in the VI name or directory path.
To specify a VI that is part of a LabVIEW project, you must include the project name, the project library, and the target in the path of the VI, when applicable. For example, if MyVI.vi resides in a project called MyProject.lvproj under target My Computer, enter the VI name as MyProject.lvproj/My Computer/MyVI.vi. If the VI resides in a project library called MyLibrary, also include the project library in the path, as in MyProject.lvproj/MyComputer/MyLibrary.lvlib:MyVI.vi. If the VI is not in a project or project library, you can enter the VI name without any additional information.
- Click the Allow Access button to allow access to the selected item. Click the Deny Access button to deny access to the selected item. If you are controlling a front panel remotely, you can set a time limit on how long a remote client can control a VI when multiple clients are waiting to control the VI. A green checkmark appears to the left of the item when you allow access, and a red X appears when you deny access.
- If an entry does not have a green checkmark or a red X by its name, the syntax for the entry is incorrect. Edit the entry or click the Remove button to delete it.
- Click the OK button to close the Options dialog box and save the changes.
