EPICS Client I/O Server 2015 connecting to machine on different subnet

[m.gabriel]

Hi all,

basically my problem is disscussed in http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/DSC-EPICS-connection-to-remote-network/m-p/966267/highlight/true#M43... , but the solution is not working for me.

I have an EPICS server running on a Ubuntu machine in a different subnet but in house. And I want to read it's variables with EPICS Client I/O Server 2015 and LabVIEW 2015. As disscussed in the solution above I have added the EPICS_CA_AUTO_ADDR_LIST=yes and EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST with the IP as a system variable and rebooted. I can get infos and values from the commandline with caget and cainfo but LabVIEW is giving me and No Known Value in the Distributed System Manager.

For setting up Labview I pretty much followed http://www.ni.com/white-paper/14149/en/ . The Client is working for variables coming from a EPICS server running on a Win7 machine on the same subnet.

Anybody got any ideas?

Hello M.Gabriel

if you using a static ip address change the subnet to 255.255.0.0

Hope it helps.
