Can not get it to install in 8.6.1.  After the instillation screen asks where you want to install the files up pops another screen that says no software will be installed and the next button is grayed out.?

If you previously installed it for another LV version, I believe that you must uninstall it before reinstalling it.

Yes, you are completely right.  I now have it working.  Thank you! 

Does anyone know if there is something like this already written for TCP/IP?  I will be trying to use this not for compact RIO but on servers.  I am afraid that using serial ports may be hard to do... Hardware wise.

Thanks

How do you specify which controller will be the Primary and which will be the Secondary?

[toddho]

I think a start up configuration file assiging a functional global variable is probably the more eligant way but I just have two identical versions but with a "Primary" boolean control setting the functional global that I change on the primary and the non-primary.  Then in my decision making it checks to see if it is the primary and takes or gives control accordingly.

Hope this helps
