Applications > Remote Applications (All Levels)

VX provides remote control functions that allow you to Add, Edit or Remove access VXapi executables or scripts to the Applications > Remote Applications menu. You can run *.exe files created with any programming language such as C or C++. You can also use Perl scripts as a wrapper for the VX Macro Language.

Add Remote Application

Add Remote Client Form

• Client Application Name
  Name of the application
  
  
• Server Computer Name
  Name of the computer that the application is running on or "local" if on same computer as VX. If "local" then VX will start the application if it is not already running, otherwise the application needs to be running on the remote computer for VX to communicate with it.
  
  
• Executable Path
  Full path to the application if on local computer (Ex: d:appssample.exe). If the application is a Perl script then this needs to be the full path to the Perl executable (Ex: C:Perlbinperl.exe).
  
  
• Executable Arguments
  Arguments to be passed to executable, or the script name to be passed to Perl (Ex: d:appssample.pl)
