Client Configuration
Create a client application using Visual or Basic.
1.Start Visual Basic.
2.Right-click on the Toolbox and select Choose Items from the menu.
3.Check "Roboticsware IPLink Ver6.0" under "COM Components" and click "OK."
4.Paste the control onto the form.
Select the "IPLink" object from the toolbar and paste it onto the form.
5.Configure the properties.
Set the properties of the
IPLink control as follows.
NetworkParam : ",3000,1000"
Online: "True"
NetworkParam sets the parameters in the order of "Server IP address, Server port number, Update cycle". If no IP address is specified, an automatically obtained IP address will be used. If you specify an IP address, set a fixed value.
When
Online is set to TRUE, the server will be connected and communication will be possible.
|
In NetworkParam, you can set "Server IP address, Server port number, Update cycle" followed by "Communication timeout (seconds), Connection timeout (seconds)".
Example: ",3000,1000,10,10"
If you set "-1" in the timeout settings, the timeout time will be determined by the OS. Please note that if it is OS dependent, you may have to wait for more than 10 minutes. If you do not set anything, the default values will be used (communication timeout: 5, connection timeout: -1). |
|
If you compile and run the IPLink control as is, it will be displayed on the screen. If you want to hide it, set the Visible property to False.
