tonyjflavell Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Hello I need to set up daqfactory as a server for udp to wait for a connection (just one) on a port, and then communicate back. Looking at the documentation this is what I have done. 1/ created a Ethernet server device with NO Ip address, port 44444 ( the listening port) and timeout 1000 2/ Opened the device with Device.UDPServer.InitComm() - this did not cause an an error 3/ Sit in a loop (with delays) waiting for anything to arrive on the device, and if so for now print it out. When something arrives I am hoping to get its IP address to reply to. I read with response += device.UDPServer.Read(0) where response is a string I'm not getting anything. I would like to ask whether this daqfactory sequence is ok. Are there any missing steps, or is it incorrect in any way? Regards Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzeoTech Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 DAQFactory does not support UDP, so it will never work. You can do a TCP server, but the thing connecting in would have to use TCP, not UDP. If you can do this, simply setup the port as you did in step 1, then click on Monitor and look and see if anything comes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
