I have an FPGA vi that I want to test on my development computer with the method shown here:

All well and good so far, but one problem- the 'custom FPGA for I/O' is effectively replacing my host VI as I understand it, but as well as simply writing data to FPGA nodes, the host VI also contains a few functions (not written by me but by NI) that are called to interact with the FPGA vi and set it up. Is there any way I can just call these VIs as I would on the host and have them setup the FPGA code when it is executing in simulated mode on the PC, or do I have to do something more clever?
