If the real-time (RT) target you are using does not have at least 32 MB of RAM, or if you do not need to interact with the simulation while the simulation is running, you can run a simulation on an RT target without starting the SIT Server. When a simulation is running without the SIT Server, you cannot use a host VI to communicate with the model DLL.

Complete the following steps to run a simulation without the SIT Server.

1. FTP the model DLL to the C:\ni-rt\system\ directory of the RT target.
2. Switch LabVIEW execution targets to run LabVIEW directly connected to the RT target.
3. Open the driver VI in LabVIEW. The driver VI is located in the <ModelName>_nidll_rtw subdirectory of the MATLAB® application software working directory.
4. Set the Start Server? front panel switch of the driver VI to FALSE.
5. Run the driver VI. When you run the driver VI, LabVIEW downloads the driver VI to the RT target and starts the simulation.
