PCSDK connect to remote controller

avicohen

Hi,

 

I try to connect to different address from
127.0.0.1<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

I do something like:

 

                AddressIp = "10.95.176.75";

                NetworkScanner
networkScanner = new NetworkScanner();

                System.Net.IPAddress ip = System.Net.IPAddress.Parse(AddressIp);

                NetworkScanner.AddRemoteController(ip);

                networkScanner.Scan();

                ControllerInfoCollection
controllers = networkScanner.Controllers;

I have a working simulator at : 10.95.176.75

That dose not work, I get only one controller in controllers IPAddress = 127.0.0.1

Someone know how to do it ?

one more question, is there a definition when i need to perform AddRemoteController ?

if my application run at 10.95.176.94 do i need to it ?

Thanks

Avi

Hi avicohen,

 

Virtual Controllers does not broadcast themselves on the LAN so they can't be found using NetScan. So the only way to 'talk' to a VC is on the same PC.

 

AddRemoteController is used when the controller you want is on a different subnet than the PC SDK application. Subnets are defined by the subnet mask on your PC LAN.

Thanks John,

If i understand you correctly i can not run my application (the one that use PC SDK)  in one PC and the simulator in another PC ?
