Hello,
We have an aplication in which there is a provision of Redundancy of the system. By Redundancy i mean to say that i am having one cFP 2120 and a host PC. Both are accquiring the Real Time values from AI module using Shared Variable concept. Each of these variables is binded with a particular channel of AI Module & will acquire the data automatically. Initially when the system is in Ok state, the PC is acquiring the data from cFP 1800 using ethernet. Now suppose the ethernet connection has been lost, at this time the PC will not be able to acquire. At this stage i want my PC to acquire data from cFP 1800 using RS 232. In this case binding of the variable with channel will not be of such use. I think in this case what i can do is to accquire the data from FP READ .vi and update the variable by wiring the variable to each channel.
what else will be the solution. Can any one tell me whether me and my collegue are on a right track or if better solution is there, please share with us.
The move will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
