How Do I Deploy a Start-up Executable to my Real-Time Controller?

Hardware: Image Acquisition (IMAQ)>>Compact Vision System

Problem:
I have deployed a start-up executable to my real-time controller. However, when I reboot the controller, why does the executable not run?

Solution:
There are two configuration settings that are set when an executable is deployed to the real-time controller. They are the following:

RTTarget.ApplicationPath=c:\ni-rt\startup\startup.rtexe
RTTarget.LaunchAppAtBoot=True


Ensure that these two flags are activated in the NI-RT.ini file. When the executable is deployed to the real-time controller using the LabVIEW Project Explorer, these two flags are automatically set. Therefore, if you are transferring the start-up executable to the controller via FTP, then these two flags will need to be set manually.
