Datasocket and Event Structure.

[dhenriquez]

I have developed a labview aplication that control some pumps and send the setpoint to some PID controllers in my test laboratory. this aplication run fine with Event Structure. I have developed too, a small labview software that use Datasocket to connect to previous software, the problem is that when i press a control from client (the control change in server) the Event structure don´t detect the "value changed" event, why? How could I find a solution?
Thanks in advance

You are not going to be able to use the event structure because datasocket changing of the value is a programatic value change and LabVIEW 6.1 does not acknowlege events for things that happen programatically. I recommend rewriting your code to poll and you should be in business.

You might be able to use the remote front panel features of Labview 6.1. This is not datasocket, so your remote machine will view a web page that is the front panel of your VI with a web browser. The remote user can then take control of the VI and use it as if the remote user was on your machine. (Be sure to test this second suggestion before implementing it.)

where is a tutorial to use the remote front panel features of LabView 6.1?

Check out chapter 17 of the LabVIEW user manual. You can find it by opening LabVIEW 6.1 >> help >> search the LabVIEW bookshelf. This launches a pdf of many great docs on LabVIEW. The user manual is one of the first.

You can also find valuable information by opening LabVIEW >> tool >> web publishing tool >> clicking on the help button at the bottom of the window.

Lastly, if you have specific questions, look on NI's advanced search page. It is both through and powerful.

A typical search might be remote front panels labview in the all the words field and searching everything.

Hi!

I came up, with this simple solution and it works with my datasocket appz.

Have a nice day!!

Edgar,

Thanks for contributing.  But this message thread was over 5 years old and 2 major versions of LabVIEW ago!
