How to Compile Labview code to an .exe

Technical NI LabVIEW

Hi robot enthusiasts,
I have been having trouble figuring out how to compile Labview code into an executable file.

I have tried building the code by expanding RT CRIO Target -> right click FRC Robot Boot-up Deployment under Build Specifications and tried both Building and Run as Startup.

So far it has output the code to a folder in my documents that contains a folder named “c” and a file called “depinstr.bin” Is this C code? How do I get an executable to run with the driverstation in the competition? I have looked here: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=111632
and also on the ni website: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361H-01/lvhowto/building_a_stand_alone_app/
but can’t quite get what I want.

Anything else I need to know? Thank you,

The c is a folder or directory and in it is the ni-rt, then startup, and in that startup.rtexe.

Does the Build succeed? If so, you should be able to Run as Startup which will cause the cRIO to reboot, and the DS should show the code running. The boot time is somewhere between 20 and 30 seconds.
