No, it's not that straightforward for communicating with real-time controllers. There's a whole deployment framework designed to communicate with, transfer files to, configure, and manipulate real-time controllers. And, unfortunately, we did not port the new deployment framework to the Mac when we overhauled the framework several releases back - there were business reasons for us not doing so. The same business reasons that make it so that LabVIEW does not support the Mac any more unless you have an Intel Mac (as of LabVIEW 8.5).
