Upgrading the Remote Panel License

You must configure a license to support the number of clients that potentially could connect to your server. By default, the remote front panel license included with LabVIEW allows one client to view and control a front panel. When you exceed the number of clients allowed by your license, the client receives a message that contains information you specify in the LicenseErrorMessage.txt file.You also can monitor the Denied connections list in the NI License Information dialog box and determine if you need to upgrade your remote panel license based on the number of client connections denied.

Complete the following steps to upgrade your remote panel license to serve more client connections.

  1. Select Tools»Remote Panel Connection Manager to display the Remote Panel Connection Manager dialog box.
  2. Click the License Information button to display the NI License Information dialog box.
  3. If the Denied connections list displays clients that were denied access to the server, and you want to upgrade your license to accommodate those clients, click the NI License Manager button and upgrade your license.
