What version of RS and RW are you using?

If you put the controller into manual and open the Virtual FlexPendant, does that open OK?

If so, what happens when you run the check program function in the RAPID editor...is there a syntax error? If there is, try fixing the syntax error then re-open the Production Window.

Sorry for not following up with it earlier.

I am using RS 5.10.2400.147 and RW 5.10.0147.

I was able to get the Virtual FlexPendant to start properly when switching to manual mode first. The problem seems to go away after a subsequent restart of RS. I am not sure what had triggered the problem in the first place. There is no syntex error in the code.

Thanks for the help!
