Building .EXE for Rectangular Target Example

[Greg McKaskle]

Yeah. The simulator complicates the camera stuff. The camera VIs were originally written so that they communicate to an external intelligent device, the camera. But for the simulator, we want to talk to a fake camera, and well, really we don't want to act like the camera, so it just grabs some stuff from the simulator.

The trigger to decide between real and fake is the target that it is running on. cRIO is real, PC is fake. But the dashboard is on the PC too, and thus things get complicated.


Next year we'll probably make dashboard specific camera property and Open VIs. Until then, if you delete the Open and property VIs that would normally set white balance, that gets rid of the references.

My VIs are in a bad state, so let me know if this doesn't work for you.
