paulneal Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Hi, when i use the system.help("c:\help.htm") This works fine on my computer although it does hang daqfactory if it cannot find the file. so i put a file exist check before. However it does not appear to work on the target machine. the files are there etc, is there anything in windows that i need to turn on. Paul.

AzeoTech Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Newer releases of Windows (Windows 7 and I think Vista) do not allow access to the root folder without admin privileges. Try putting it in c:\DAQFactory instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulneal Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 It appears to work in Windows 7, But not in when i transfer it over to XP. I have coppied all of the files to the directory. I also have an issue with modbus slave. Is there any issues with it on windows 7. I have a modbus master remotely which comes into us through our router. I have run a modbus slave simulator which works fine but i do not receive anything on the comms monitor. This software has been working fine for a few weeks until my pc packed in, my new one is on 7. I have turned all of the firewalss of etc. i know it is not a lot to go on but i just wondered if there is anything in 7. Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzeoTech Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 No issues that I know of. Windows 7, however, has a lot of weird security things. The mod slave simulator you are using is on TCP as well? Make sure its not running at the same time as DAQFactory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
