HI,
I have been running a VI in Labview 2011 that uses Telnet VIs to communicate with an instrument over an Ethernet LAN. I upgraded to Labview 2016 and these VIs are no longer available. Have these VIs been replaced. It appears that the Web Services VIs might be the alternative method, but it is not obvious how to use these VIs. Any direction would be appreciated.
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.

I believe the telnet VIs were deprecated in LV 2012.

A few of the interfaces from the Internet Toolkit were moved over into the base LabVIEW (2012 sounds about right for the timeframe). The Telnet were completely deprecated. For the couple of applications I have needed it in the last month or two, I just used normal TCP/IP to do the communications and have not ran into a problem yet.

Thanks I will try that. Gives me something to go try. That was what I needed.

Hi Crossrulz,
I am currently working on a project where I need to connect to CAN_Ethernet Gateway using Telnet. I was wondering if you can send a snippet or image of the section where you used TCP/IP for communications.
Thanks

It is literally the command with an End Of Line concatenated to it and then into the TCP Write. I used the CRLF ending option for the TCP Read. Otherwise, just look up the TCP Client and TCP Server examples (Help->Find Examples) for the rest of the details.
