Description

Overview
This example demonstrates how to get the filesystem type of a Real-Time target from a host system.


Description
The VI opens a system session to a Target's IP, uses the System Session property node to pull the "Real Time:File System" property type, and closes the connection. Some possible return values for this are Reliance and FAT (in this case it is shorthand for FAT32). Note: This does not interrupt a deployed Real-Time Startup Executable.

 

There are many other properties available from this property node, a full list of them can be found here:
