Adding New Visible VIs Entries

Complete the following steps to add a new entry to the Visible VIs list.

  1. Select Tools»Options to display the Options dialog box.
  2. Select Web Server: Visible VIs from the pull-down menu at the top of the Options dialog box.
  3. Click the Add button.
  4. Enter the name of the VI or directory path in the text box. You also can use wildcards in the VI name or directory path.
  5. Place a checkmark in the Allow Access checkbox to allow access to the selected item. Remove the checkmark 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 client can control the front panel. A green checkmark appears to the left of the item when you allow access, and a red X appears when you deny access.
  6. 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.
  7. Click the OK button to close the Options dialog box and save the changes.
