NIVBAITargetControl

Control that represents a single local or remote execution target.

Note If the connection to a local target fails the first time you try to connect to the local target, restart the computer and retry the connection.

Note If you open a target using this control, avoid using the NIVBAITarget object to access the target. Using both the object and the control for the target may result in the inspection attempting to access a target that has been closed unknowingly.

Caution When you run a LabVIEW VI that contains the NIVBAITargetControl, National Instruments strongly recommends that you avoid using the Abort Execution button to stop running the VI. When you use the Abort Execution button, the VI stops, but the connection to the target is not closed. When the connection to the target is still open, you cannot modify any of the control properties. The property page items appear unavailable.
