xPC Target

Using Methods and Properties on the Target PC

xPC Target uses an object-oriented environment on the host PC with methods and properties. While the target PC does not use the same objects, many of the methods on the host PC have equivalent target PC commands. The target PC commands are case sensitive, but the arguments are not case sensitive.

After you have created and downloaded a target application to the target PC, you can use the target PC commands to run and test your application.

1. On the target PC, press C or move the mouse over the command window.

1. The target PC command window is activated, and a command line opens. If the command window is already activated, you do not have to press C. In this case, pressing C is taken as the first letter in a command.

2. In the Cmd box, type a target PC command. For example, to start your target application, type

• start <enter>
  

Once the command window is active, you do not have to reactivate it before typing the next command. For a list of target PC commands, see Target Object Methods, Target Object Properties, Scope Object Methods, and Scope Object Properties.
