Write settings in Data Socket

[Randall Thurman]

I am having some trouble setting multiple writers and write access on data socket items that are not predefined through the data socket manager.

I want to use variant or cluster items and have only been able to create these items from the LabVIEW application. This works fine until I need to write from more than one location. The data socket properties that I have found do not seem to expose these settings.

I must be overlooking something any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

As far as I remember, these settings can, unfortunately, be only set from the Data Socket Manager.

Thanks for your reply.

I hope there is a way around this. For the write access I can specify the host that may create dynamic items. The multiple writer is needed in my application for two way communication. I suppose a second connection could be predefined for this portion of code.

Pre-defining a variant or cluster in the data socket would be another way of doing this. Yet I am still :headbang:

Thanks again for the reply.
