Coprocessor with LabVIEW

I've seen a lot of discussion about Coprocessors with Grip and OpenCV but not much discussion about LabVIEW.

We have image processing built on LabVIEW but we'd like to run it off of a coprocessor. We want to send a numeric array to the RoboRIO and a processed image to the Driver Station.

We do not know, however, how to send our information from the coprocessor to the RoboRIO and the Driver Station. I have everything hooked up through a network switch and from my understanding the RoboRIO is the host of this network. Smart Dashboard VIs coming from the coprocessor don't seem to communicate with the RoboRIO or the Driver Station (probably not their intention but it was worth a try).

I had semi-success using a Driver Station program running on the coprocessor but it seems that only one Driver Station at a time can communicate with the robot.
