Re : datasocket over LAN

[MSD100]

I want to use datasocket for network communication.....I have created two vis write and read......these works on local host ...but when I try to run on different pc on same network, it does not work....i mean no communication......

I have changed URL accordingly...

PC1---dsw.vi----: "dstp://i.p.address of pc1/wave"

PC2---dsr.vi-----: "dstp://i.p.address of pc1/wave"

Also changed setting of datasocket server manager like creator,listner etc changed to everyhost.....also I added a new item "wave" in server manager in both pcs...

What else I have to do?

Hi,

did you checked your firewall to see if ports are opened ?

Regards,

[MSD100]

In firewall exception list ...National Instrument Datasocket Server is checked and also Labview development is checked......so it is allowed to communicate....

anybody who have used datasocket over LAN??

[MSD100]

I can ping the other pc and vice versa....but host can't see datasocket server on server vi...Is something missing over there?????

Kindly advise,,

Thanks....

Have you try configure DataSocket Server Manager? Pemission Groups>Wave> change localhost to everyhost Vicen

Make sure you have the DSTP server running on both the PCs. While running, it will show up in the icons list of your task bar, i.e. the bottom right of your screen.
