I think we need more information before we can really give you any help. What is controlling your circuit that you are trying to communicate with? Is this a third party piece of hardware or is this something you are developing? Both ends of the communication need to be network aware so simply sending data from your computer over the network may not work. The circuit will need to be listening for the message on the appropriate port whether it is a UDP or TCP port.

As for programming the examples provided in LabVIEW for both the UDP and TCP VIs should help.

well i am working on a digital clock that counts by itself. But every 12 hours it communicates with the computer via a ethernet mini-board (contains the ENC28j60 chip from microchip ). Therefore, i am trying to find a way through labview to copy the computer clock to my digital clock (to act like a refresh if my clock has a delay in counting).

i have labview 8.2.1 and for some reason i cant open the UDP exemples labview offers me :s

Hi,

I'm new here.

I checked this forum and found a few answers to my labview needs and i thank you guys (girls too).

But, i have a little problem with Ethernet connectivity with the program.

What i am trying to do is get the time from the computer send it to my circuit over the internet.

I am currently trying to do so using UDP because it seems easier.

But now, i am stuck .

I don't know exactly what to do in terms of reading, writing, etc.

Does anyone have an answer to my little problem?

Thanks in advance,

Nick
