Parameters

Data type	Name	Required	Description

To specify a VI that is part of a LabVIEW project, you must include the project name, the project library, and the target in the path of the VI, when applicable. For example, if MyVI.vi resides in a project called MyProject.lvproj under target My Computer, enter the VI name as MyProject.lvproj/My Computer/MyVI.vi. If the VI resides in a project library called MyLibrary, also include the project library in the path, as in MyProject.lvproj/My Computer/MyLibrary.lvlib:MyVI.vi. If the VI is not in a project or project library, you can enter the VI name without any additional information.

	Server Port	Yes	Port on which the Web Server is located.
	Request Control	No	If TRUE (default), the client requests control of the front panel immediately after opening a connection to the server. The server queues the request if another client currently controls the front panel.
