TCP WITH 6K2 CONTROLLERS- PARKER

Hello,
I am using 6K2 controller for co-ordinated motion of an XY table. Parker has a document detailing the specs of Ethernet communication at following location:
http://www.parkermotion.com/manuals/6K/6K_Ethernet_Specs1p3.doc
I can communicate with the controller at port 5002 successfully but I have been only partially successful with talking to port 5004. The watch dog timer values are set at this port which enables Labview to monitor if all 6K2s are still online and connected.
I believe I am confused about the formatting of the 12 bytes. I send a VI to parker but to my surprise they don't have any one with Labview knowledge. I wonder if any one from this community has done what I am trying to accomplish. I am aware of the ActiveX control that is available for unit but for some reason I am trying to avoid it. I would prefer to use Labview's TCP and UDP vi to communicate with the controller.
I have attached a screen shot of the diagram showing how I am building the 12 byte.
Thanks

Hello:
Thanks for answering Pedro. I've read the document you told me to, but it refers to problems with VI Server, the application is not using VI server, so I guess the problem comes from somewhere else. I still haven't figured out why this is happening.
About the Error 56, well, I'll try to slow down the communication, I'm not doing any delays after sending the information. I wasn't aware that I needed to do this.
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Problem communicating via Modbus TCP with Honeywell UDC3200

Hello:
I have to read the temperature of the Input 1 of this controllers. I've succesfully read the temperatures in the controllers. I'm using Modbus TCP/IP for the communication through the NI Modbus Library 1.1. I'm working on LabVIEW 8.5.1. However, sometimes when I open the connection, I get error 56 (timeout), despite that the controller responds to a ping. When I can initiate all the connections to the controllers, some hours after the monitoring has started, randomly, I get an error 66 (the connection was closed by the peer). This error interrupts the connection and the temperature readings stop. This is not acceptable.
Also, I've found out that if you don't request some data from the controllers in 5 seconds or more, also the error 66 appears. To solve this, I poll twice a second the controllers but the error 66 still shows up.
The controllers and the PC are interconnected via an Ethernet switch. The switch works well.
In brief, I can communicate with the controllers but the communication is not reliable. Sometimes when I start the communication I get an Error 56 and sometimes after the communication starts I get Error 66. It cannot be predicted when this will happen.
Why does the error 66 appears?
Has somebody communicated succesfully with this controllers?
I'd really appreciate your help, I'm running out of time.
Thanks in advance.

Guest Access Certificates with Multiple Controllers

So I have an interesting scenario to run by the group, I haven't done this but was wondering if anyone else had tried it.
Scenario: is 5 WLC's running 6.0.188.0, One guest SSID, and One H-REAP guest SSID.
WLC#1: SNMP Name is WLC01, Virtual Interface DNS Name is GWLC.somewhere.com, Virtual Interface IP is 1.1.1.1
WLC#2: SNMP Name is WLC02, Virtual Interface DNS Name is GWLC.somewhere.com, Virtual Interface IP is 1.1.1.1
WLC#3: SNMP Name is WLC03, Virtual Interface DNS Name is GWLC.somewhere.com, Virtual Interface IP is 1.1.1.1
WLC#4: SNMP Name is WLC04, Virtual Interface DNS Name is GWLC.somewhere.com, Virtual Interface IP is 1.1.1.1
WLC#5: SNMP Name is WLCDMZ, Virtual Interface DNS Name is GWLC.somewhere.com, Virtual Interface IP is 1.1.1.1
So part 1 of my question is does the above configuration cause any issues with the controllers?
Part 2 of my question is can you request a single SSL certificate for the hostname GWLC.somewhere.com and install it on all the controllers?
The reason for having the certificate on all the controllers is because of the H-REAP Locally Switched SSID.
Anyone have experience with this, input, thoughts?
Thanks.

I too have seen numerous cases on this.
Bottom line is that as long as your HREAP Guests can resolve GWLC.somewhere.com through DNS (as 1.1.1.1), then this should work.

Using modbus/TCP with USB ethernet adapters

I have a test stand where I have a handful of USB instruments and a single modbus/TCP slave. I'm considering adding a USB ethernet adapter to the stand so that there is a single USB cable connecting the computer to the hardware rather than both a USB and an ethernet connection. Does anybody out there have experience (good or bad) using USB ethernet adapters with modbus/TCP slaves?
The existing USB instruments all use ASCII/SCPI-style command sets. The Modbus/TCP slave is an Automation Direct EBC-100. Nothing high-bandwidth or low-latency. Basically, the computer issues no more than a handful or command or request (ether SCPI or Modbus/TCP) per minute.

Oracle 11g on Windows XP - TCP with SSL

Hello,
have successfully set-up Oracle 11g on a Windows XP machine which am using as a small server in a trial/test environment.
As this machine is running in my local environment without external connections the Windows Firewall is DEactivated.
A java test program written to connect to the server using TCP / via a plain text connection using the oracle thin JDBC driver is working fine.
Now wanted to set-up the server so it would accept SSL connections (ultimately with peer Authentication, but without server or client authentication as a start configuration).
Have used Oracle Net Manager to configure the server as follows:
(Note: have used red ink to hightlight settings I am unclear if they are needed)

Hi,
would now need to trace and understand why the handshake is failing.
As you can see from the above posted config files and the trace_level settings tracing should already be turned on on my system - correct? So where would I find the output messages telling me in more detail why the handshake is failing?
The error I am getting when trying to connect from a Java client program using the JDBC thin driver is:

Modbus TCP with Beckhoff (Wago)

Hi,
I'm looking for examples/how to/lib/dll to build a communication to a Beckhoff BK9000(similar to Wago 750) which have a Ethernet - Modbus TCP Option.
I'm able to write via LabVIEW-TCP-Functions but only once after powering on and the result/answer is more confusing.
For the lookout OPC variant i heared there is still some additional software needed - true? or is it possible to set up the communication with lookout OPC without third party driver?
Thanks for any help
Hans

Hi JAMR,
There are plenty of examples that setup up the tcp server communications. If you open up the NI Example Finder and double click on the Networking Folder (under the Browse tab). You can then select the TCP & UDP folder and find several examples that use TCP. Also, there is a great knowledge-base article that provides information about network communication with TCP/IP messaging protocol. Essentially, what you are going to want to do is establish basic connectivity between the computer and the device and then assign the device an IP address. Before you do anything with the driver for the device, you might try to ping the device first. Once you can get this working, then you can set up the TCP/IP communication. I hope this helps!

ISE(identity services engine) Compatability with 4400 Controllers

We have mixture of wireless controllers in our environment consisting of Cisco 4400 and 5500 series wireless controllers. We are in the early stages of piloting Cisco's Identity Services Engine. I am trying to get clarification if it is fully compatible with 4400 series controllers running on 7.0.116 code, or do you have to use 5500 series on 7.2? Can someone please clarify this. Thanks.

HI,
Here is the network compatibility guide for ISE - http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/ise/1.1/compatibility/ise_sdt.html#wp55038
There are some new features (i.e. device registration web authentication) that I find very useful when you want to incorporate device registration without redirecting users to a login page, this is not supported on the 4400s since they can't run Radius NAC in mac filtering mode (i.e. fixed in 7.2). I do feel that there is a bug in this document because I have seen CWA work on the 7.0 code.
I hope this helps,

TCP with classic under os X

Hi,
I have installed a firewall for panther 10.3.9,
and am noticing that classic applications open blocked TCP
sockets; (For security to prevent being hacked again through classic apps, they are blocked by ipfw from communicating.)
When I do a:
netstat -A -p tcp
from the Terminal app, it returns (in part):
<pre>
Active Internet connections
Socket Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address (state)
17f7744 tcp4 0 0 editedout.65 mc-in-f147.g.http ESTABLISHED
329f30 tcp4 0 0 *.57504 . 11
329f30 tcp4 0 0 *.57501 . 11
</pre>
Notice how the state is 11 instead of something human readable like IDLE, CLOSED, LISTEN or anything normal.
These TCP sockets stick around forever, and I don't know
how to get rid of them without rebooting all the time.
What does 11 mean as a TCP state, and since I have listed the -A option for the TCP control block, is there any way to get OS-X to list the PID of the application owning that TCP port? lsof does not seem to know about these, nor does fstat. Google turns up nill for some very complicated searches, except someone else who has the same problem from
a few years back.

Disk 2 from the same G5 should install a working System Folder for Classic and if it doesn't, either you have the wrong disks or something else is interfering…
Did that Mac have any other symptoms before this came up, please?
Retail OS 9 installers do not work with G5 and even with older Macs that can boot in pure OS 9. the CD's System Folder can't be copied - it uses special file versions designed to work on a locked volume, not a HD.
Apple's Clean System Installation Optioni will not replace even your 9 System Folder, and it won't touch X - but could you describe that again, please? The only way you should be able to run a retail 9 installer on a G5 is if you do already have a working System Folder for Classic…

How to setup WinME TCP with wired connection to WRT54G?

I have a WinME computer that I'm trying to connect directly (via network cable) to a WRT54G router. I have an XP computer connected directly to the router and another XP connected via a wireless router, but I can't seem to figure out the settings to get the internet connection on the WinME computer to work, though the network neighborhood is working fine. I tried before to get a wireless connection on the WinME computer, but was unsuccessful (same thing; the network neighborhood worked fine; tried the internet access fix with Winsock to no avail). Now that I've moved all of the computers together into the same room, I thought I would try again using a direct connection, but I can't remember what the settings are for the network TCP/IP protocol? Putting the router's IP address in the gateway block does not seem to do anything. I can't even remember where I found all of the info before.
Can someone point me in the right direction?

I'm not using static addresses (except for the router). Here's the setup:
Internet Connection Type Static IP
Internet IP Address: . . . 206.183.182.233
Subnet Mask: . . . 255.255.255. 0
Gateway: . . . 206.183.182. 1
Static DNS 1: . . . 206.183.176. 2
Static DNS 2: . . . 216.168. 84. 2
Network Setup
Local IP Address: . . . 192.168. 5. 1
Subnet Mask: . . . 255.255.255. 0
Network Address Server Settings (DHCP)
DHCP Server: Enable
Starting IP Address . . . 192.168. 5.100
I've tried both IE and Firefox. I have tried using static IPs to no avail. What should the DNS and gateway settings on the WinME computer be?
Thanks!

Period opening and closing with relation to Parked document

We have the process of parking the document and then posting the same through T code: FBV0. Every month we park the document.
Many times it happens that the period is closed without posting the parked documents. Do we have any way where we can check during doing the Transaction code OB52 which will give the message that posting period cannot be changed unless and until the parked document are posted
Prashant P Zinge

Hi,
Your requirment is not available in Standard SAP.
Parked documents can be posted in any month in a FY, some times at the end of FY also.
SAP have a possibility to delete all the parked documents related to previous FY at the begining of new Fiscal Year to start new Parked documents for new FY.

UIView Animation Problem with different Controllers

Hello!
I have a problem regarding the UIView animation and therefore, I have three questions:
1. is it possible to flip from view old to view new whereby each of the views have their own controller?
2. Can I only flip views sharing the same controller?
3. Maybe someone could help me with the following issue: I have two views, and each of the views have their own controller.. the code snippet illustrates my approach.. When i start my code, the new view is added on top of the old view, and the flipping animation is animating the old view only behind the new view.. Sure, this is not what i want to have.
MapPrototypeAppDelegate *app = (MapPrototypeAppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
ReadGroupsViewController *aReadGroupsViewController = app.readGroupsTableViewController;
UIWindow *window = app.window;
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationTransition: UIViewAnimationTransitionFlipFromRight forView:[self.mapView superview] cache:YES];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:1.3];
[UIView setAnimationDelegate:self];
[window addSubview:[aReadGroupsViewController view]];
[UIView commitAnimations];
thanks..

Yes.

The flip animation may be used to transition between any "old" and "new" view without regard to whether those views have different controller's, the same controller, or no controller at all.

[window addSubview:[aReadGroupsViewController view]];
[UIView commitAnimations];
I think I need a better understanding of the view hierarchy we have before aReadGroupsVC.view is added. The problem you're having is probably caused by passing the wrong view as arg here: [self.mapView superview]. But I can't say for sure since I don't know how mapView is related to the view hierarchy, and I don't know what it's superview is. It might be easier to just explain your "old" view structure and tell us how you want it to change after the flip transition.

Lobby Admin Guest Account with Two Controllers

I have two 5508 WLCs. Both have APs attached to them. If I create a guest account with the lobby administrator on one, will that user account be able to log in to the network if the client is attached to the ohter WLC? So far, I have found that I need to create the same user on both WLC's, in order to have the user login.

No, if you create the Lobby Admin on the WLC it does not cross over to any other WLC>
Now if you had WCS/NCS you coudl create the user there, and it would be able to push to both WLC.

1250AP's with 4400 Controllers - LWAPP WAN Bandwidth consumption

Does anyone know and, preferably, have a link on how much bandwidth a Lightweight AP consumes when deployed across a WAN link? I know Cisco keeps saying no more then 8 across a WAN managed by a centralized controller, but I can't find anything specific. Thanks so much in advance.

There's a lot of components in LWAPP packets which will vary according to different situation.check this for LWAPP detail: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ohara-capwap-lwapp-02
actually, A discovery request packet is 97 bytes (including the 4 byte FCS),A discovery response packet is 106 bytes (including the 4 byte FCS), Packet sizes for the join request and response messages will vary based on the MTU supported by the transport(1596 or 1596+1500),The initial exchange between the AP and the WLC (ap-manager interface) is approximately 6,000 bytes and a one-time configuration change averages 360 bytes and involves 2 packets each from the AP and the
WLC's ap-manager interface.An RRM-related information exchange takes place once the AP has been provisioned. A typical exchange
between the AP and the WLC (ap-manager interface) is approximately 1400 bytes. In the event of an RRM-related configuration change, there is a four-packet exchange between the AP and the WLC's apmanager
interface. This exchange averages 375 bytes.The system heartbeat, coupled with fallback mechanism, is 4 packets every 30
seconds and comprises of the following packets:
LWAPP ECHO_REQUEST from AP (78 bytes)
LWAPP Echo-Response to AP (64 bytes)
LWAPP PRIMARY_DISCOVERY_REQ from AP (93 bytes)
LWAPP Primary Discovery-Response to AP (97 bytes).
There are two ongoing RRM exchanges. The first one, at every 60-second interval is the load and signal
measurement and consists of 4 packets. This exchange always adds up to 396 bytes, as following:
LWAPP RRM_DATA_REQ from AP (107 bytes)

The second sequence of packets is the noise measurement (including a statistics information request and
response sequence) done every 180 seconds. This is a short (0.01 seconds typically) exchange of packets
and averages 2,660 bytes approximately. It consists of the following packets:
LWAPP RRM_DATA_REQ from AP
LWAPP Airewave-Director-Data Response to AP
LWAPP RRM_DATA_REQ from AP
LWAPP Airewave-Director-Data Response to AP
LWAPP RRM_DATA_REQ from AP

Rogue measurements are done as a part of the scanning mechanism (for more details, refer to the Auto RF
and Rogue Detection whitepapers) and included in the above RRM exchange every 180 seconds.
The LWAPP data frame header adds 6 bytes to the existing 802.11 packets.
Since LWAPP frames can be fragmented, a Fragment ID field is included and the total packet size can be
determined by adding the original frame and the IP Fragment that follows (It is important to note that the IP
Fragment that follows is not encapsulated in any LWAPP headers).
In conclusion, operation of LWAPP does not introduce heavy bandwidth requirements on the infrastructure and in most typical deployments, there would be no such need to add extra capacity to the infrastructure to accommodate Cisco's Unified Wireless Architecture.

Firewire card with multiple controllers

Quick question....
I am looking for a firewire card for connecting 2 cameras. Will I be able to use a standard PCI-E card or will I need to look for one with one controller per port.... Most share a single controller voer multiple ports. I've had problems int eh past with multiple ports on one card, but this may have been a PCI card with limited system bandwidth.....
Ideas anyone?
The cameras will be most likely 1280x1024 RGB cameras with 60FPS.
Cheers for any help forthcoming.

Nobody, no?
The cameras are actually monochrome, 8-bit not RGB (24-bit) and only go up to 30Hz.....
I mean theoretically a FW400 card should handle a 1024pixel x 1280pixel x 8bit x 30Hz (314 Mbit/s without overhead) picture no problem but adding a second camera will more than saturate the bus.....
Anyone know of a decent PCI-E FW card which has two ports with a seperate controller for each? Please?
