Two copies must be run one on each computer. One serves as the client (topside) and the other as the
server (tow vehicle). Since the client connects to the server, the Create Client (topside) address must be

address should be 0.0.0.0.
After pressing the Create buttons to start the server and clients on their respective machines, the two
applications hook up, then the Client count on the tow vehicle should increment from 0 to 1 and the
Server count on the topside should increment to 1 as well. This indicates that there is one connection
between the two applications
Check the Server Send Data box on the tow vehicle. A performance in MB/second will be displayed. This
should be more than 0.35Mbyte/s.
