Option Remote Server Accessing remote cards

Troubleshooting
If the above methods do not work please try one of the following steps:
• Ask your network administrator for the IP address of the digitizerNETBOX/generatorNETBOX and access it directly over the IP address.
• Check your local firewall whether it allows access to the device and whether it allows to access the ports listed in the technical data sec -
tion.
• Check with your network administrator whether the subnet, the device and the ports that are listed in the technical data section are acces -
sible from your system due to company security settings.
Accessing remote cards
To detect remote card(s) from the client PC, start the Spectrum Control Center on the client and click "Netbox Discovery". All discovered cards
will be listed under the "Remote" node.
Using remote cards instead of using local ones is as easy as using a digitizerNETBOX and only requires a few lines of code to be changed
compared to using local cards.
Instead of opening two locally installed cards like this:
one would call spcm_hOpen() with a VISA string as a parameter instead:
to open cards on the Remote Server PC with the IP address 192.168.1.2. The driver will take care of all the network communication.
hDrv0 = spcm_hOpen ("/dev/spcm0"); // open local card spcm0
hDrv1 = spcm_hOpen ("/dev/spcm1"); // open local card spcm1
hDrv0 = spcm_hOpen ("TCPIP::192.168.1.2::inst0::INSTR"); // open card spcm0 on a Remote Server PC
hDrv1 = spcm_hOpen ("TCPIP::192.168.1.2::inst1::INSTR"); // open card spcm1 on a Remote Server PC
