LabWindows/CVI Remote Debugger Utility
Use the LabWindows/CVI Remote Debugger utility to set the TCP/IP connection settings for remote debugging on the computer on which the debuggee is running. The debuggee uses this TCP/IP connection to communicate with the LabWindows/CVI debugger running on the local computer. Use the New Remote Debugging Target dialog box to set the connection settings from the local computer.
LabWindows/CVI provides a copy of the utility for debugging 32-bit configurations and a copy for debugging 64-bit configurations: RemoteDebugger32Bit.exe and RemoteDebugger64Bit.exe. Copy the utility for the configuration you want to debug from the LabWindows/CVI bin folder to the computer on which the debuggee is running.
Run the utility and specify the following options:
- Name/IP address of the CVI environment—Specifies the network address of the computer that is running LabWindows/CVI. You can enter a machine name or an IP address for this option.
- Network port of the debug session—Specifies the port from which LabWindows/CVI accepts network connections from debuggees. The Debugging Port you specify in the New Remote Debugging Target dialog box must match the port you specify in this option. The default is 3291.
- Enable remote debugging—Starts the remote debugging session.
