Transfer value from one VI to another over a network?

Hi,
What is the best/easiest way to send a numeric value from one VI to another over a LAN.  I only need one number to be sent every time the first vi is run which won't be that many, I then need to run the other VI and access that data.  I could save the value to file and then open that file from the other VI, this I thought is a bit messy and wondered if LabVIEW accommodates this through property nodes etc rather than writing to file?  Also by saving to file etc the reading VI needs to execute after the first one has written obviously, this could cause timing issues and to have something like a property node would be far better.
Many Thanks 

Use DataSockets. The simplest, although not necessarily the fastest.
Check out the examples.
Basically, you "connect" a control on one VI (on one machine) to another control (possibly on different VI, possibly on different machine.

  • Transfer files from one computer to another thru wireless network

    I have a new IMAC , and a Macbook Pro, which has a lot of files that I would like to transfer to the new IMAC, I also have a Time Capsule and both computers are set up on the same network. Can I do this? How do I ask to access the Macbook Pro from the IMAC?

    Wireless would be my last choice.
    Using a wired network would be faster.
    Faster file transfer would be to boot the source of the files in target ddisk mode and connect the two Macs together by FireWire.

  • Transfer field value from one screen to another screen

    hi gurus,
    I am using field exit in mm02, i want to transfer field value from one screen to another screen. I am using Export, Import, Some FM like DYNP.......
    but not getting the value.
    can any one give idea about this.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Sudheer.

    I THINK IN FIELD EXITS SOME RESTRICTION IS THERE YOU CAN NOT USE CALL TRANSACTION OR CALL SCREEN. I DONT KNOW WHAT IS YOUR ACTUAL REQUIREMENT. BUT YOU ARE TRYING TO CALL TRANSACTION USING MEMORY ID OR SOMETHING THEN I THINK IN FIELD EXIT YOU CAN NOT DO THAT. PLS CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG

  • Transfer data from one database to another without identities but keep the relation b/w PK and Foreign key

    Hi,
    I need to transfer data from one database to another database (both are identical databases). 
    1. Not transferring identity columns (primary keys). the destination table might have the same key.
    2. keep the PK's and FK's relation b/w parent and child table
    3. I have 4 levels 
    Example: tableA (col1 int identity(1,1) , col2, col3)
    tableB (col1 int identity(1,1) ,
    col2 , col3) -- col2 has the foreign key relation with tableA.col1
    tableC (col1 int identity(1,1) ,
    col2, col3) -- col2  has the foreign key relation with tableB.col1
    tableD (col1 int identity(1,1) , col2, col3) -- col2  has the foreign key relation with tableC.col1
    please advise me.
    Thanks in advance

  • How do I transfer iTunes from one computer to another?

    How do I transfer iTunes from one computer to another?

    This really depends on how technical you want to get, and how much of the library data you want to retain. First, there is getting the actual song files over to your new computer. If both computers are on the same network and are on iTunes 9, you can use home sharing to transfer the song files to your new computer.
    Once the files are transferred, now you have to get all of the metadata transferred, like Playlists and Song Ratings. There is a method for doing this that involves editing your Library.xml file to transfer Playlists, Playcounts, etc..
    If all you want to transfer is your Playlists and song files, there are programs that will back up your playlists so you can transfer them to a new computer, but if you're able to do the above XML edits (which are pretty simple), that is preferred (and cheaper).
    I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.

  • How to transfer costs from one WBS to another WBS?

    Hi,
    I want to transfer costs from one WBS to another. Remember two currencies are maintained viz. local and group.
    So how can i transfer the balance such that both the local currency and group currency balance gets transferred.
    Please ensure that the transfer should show 0 balance outstanding in CJI3 report.
    I need to transfer because WBS is holding some value which was not settled in the previous year.

    Hi
    You can transfer the Amount from One WBS to Another through KB11N. In this you Choose the Screen Variant as "_WBS/Network_" and do necessary steps.
    Hope it helps.

  • Move value from one listbox to another listbox

    Hi,
    I have two list boxes with list of values in it. Can anyone help me to move values from one listbox to another listbox on click of a button in AWT. It will be of great help if i can get any sample code.
    Thanks a lot in advance

    hi,
    do u want to move a specific item that is selected or all of the items?
    anyway the logic is very simple!:)
    if u want to transfer the currently selected itme form the first List box,
    use the method getSelectedItem() to get the currently selected item.
    then keep this value in a String variable (item)
    and use getItemSelected() to get the Index of it in int.
    keep this value in an int variable (index)
    then delete the item from the first list using the method remove(index) on the first list object.
    then add the item to the second list using
    add(item) on the second list object.
    hope u can work it out urself from here!

  • Can I use flash drives to transfer data from one MBP to another at a differ

    I've looked and cannot find any info on the use of flash drives. Can I use a flash drive to transfer data from one MBP to another one at a different location? (ie; school Apple and home MBP) Grade tests and papers at home, enter data into home computer, then put it on flash drive and carry flash drive to school, transferring data to school desk top? Are certain flash drives preferrable over others, name brands, size, etc?

    Yep, you sure can. Just about any drive will work as mentioned above. But I'm partial to SanDisk and PNY. I've used both and they work great! Currently I carry both a 2GB SanDisk Micro Cruzer and a retractable 2GB SanDisk Cruzer, both really nice. Replaced my oldie but goodie 256MB PNY drive that I've been using since they first came out.

  • Passing Value from one File to Another !!!

    Hi Friends,
    I have an issue, I have two different Swing programs (two seperate java files). I want to transfer value from one file to the another. Like we do in Servlets or JSP, we use sessions or Hiddenfields. The same way I want to retriev value in a new file from a previous one.
    Hope that all u champs out there have the answer to my query.
    Thanks,
    [email protected]

    This is a B2B comms question...
    A quick and dirty method is to use Socket/ServerSocket and use a basic protocol to do the transfer, if you are feeling heroic then use XML as the message format...
    A lot depends on whether your applications are running on separate boxes, i.e. do you need to communicate across a network...
    If not, if they are always going to be on the same "box" then you could just use well-known places for files...not portable but effective...

  • How can I transfer work from one computer to another?

    How can I transfer work from one computer to another?

    Welcome to the forum.
    I can think of three basic ways to accomplish what you wish to do:
    Use the Project Archiver to archive your Project (and check the box to gather the media files), to an external HDD. Probably the easiest way to do it.
    Copy the Project and ALL media files to an external HDD, but be prepared to relink the media files to the Project, as the drive letter (part of the Absolute Path) will have changed.
    Edit loosely, and Share to an AV file, which will be Imported into a New Project on that second computer. Or, edit VERY tightly, and do the same. I like the first, as removing, replacing Transitions, etc., can be much more difficult, unless that "tight edit" is 100% done.
    Good luck,

  • How can I transfer information from one ipad to another?

    how can I transfer information from one ipad to another ?

    What kind of information? You can sync things like Contacts and Calendars by using iCloud. You can backup one iPad to iTunes on a computer and then sync the backup to the other iPad. You can configure your iTunes content and sync the same content to both iPads.
    It is based on what you want to do. Or are you looking for a way to send files from one iPad to another wirelessly? There are apps to do things like that, as well as cloud services, such as DropBox.
