BridgeVIEW Client/Server Application

We have recently been developing and Industrial Monitoring and Control Application
using BridgeVIEW. The software application consists of a SERVER application
that is controlling and monitoring the industrial application, and a CLIENT
software application (in BridgeVIEW) that has a subset of the functionality
to control and monitor the HOST software application from remote terminals.
This means we are using the network tags to synchronize the applications.

I learned of several VIs that are going to be neede to make this application
fully functinal. They are: rgstr RVBVC, rgstr RVBVS, bvtcp client, & bvtcp
server.

Does anyone have any experience using these VIs in a real-world application,
as well as with a BridgeVIEW
Client/Server application.

Thanks.

Hello Wayne,

You do not have to really know about these VIs. All you have to do is to
run these "register VIs" once on your systems to register the Remote Server
and Client. You'll then use the Network Tags to impelement the Server/Client
network. Also, you will not be using the TCP/IP VIs yourself. All this
will be transparent to you.

Regards,

Khalid

I would agree with Khalid's post. I have been doing this with Bridgview quite
easily.
However, if you need to port this data to machines that are not running Bridgview
software somne of the VIs that come with the Internet toolkit can come in
handy. Although I have found that at most times third party tools to port
data has been easier for me - perhaps because of familiarity or sometimes
"access to familiarity". If you need any help, please feel free to e-mail
me.
