Cannot Change Real-Time (RT) Controller's IP Address through LabVIEW Project

Primary Software: LabVIEW Modules>>Real-Time Module
Primary Software Version: 5.0
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: N/A

Problem:
I have a LabVIEW project with an RT controller as a target. When I right-click the RT target and navigate to Properties, I cannot change the IP address or DNS name entry. However, I can change all settings in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX). Why can I not change the IP address through the LabVIEW project?

Solution:
This setting can be changed through the project, but you must be disconnected from the target. If you right-click the target, you should see a selection to Disconnect. Once you are disconnected from the target, then the IP address can be altered.
