Hello Stefan,

Yes this should work fine, embedded mode simulation should also work :D

Here's an example to get you started.

Before running, select the Network comms component and provide a property setting for the Network Interface.

Let us know how you get on.

Hi Ben

Yes it is working. Scada has also recognized my 5 network cards and I can simply select card 4 and it connects the network card where the Microchip Board is plugged in. PERFECT !
Ok I have to program the correct socket connection now ….

regards

Stefan

Hi Ben
5 network cards sounds interesting

To record a 3D movement track you need 3 fast cameras. One for each axis( X, Y, Z). These cameras mostly have a GIGE interface, which is about 1Giga-lan. Each camera needs a network connection to transfer the data for 80,000 lines with 2000 pixels per second. No problem, there are 4 channel network cards for a good price.
1. Card for X-Camera
2. Card for Y-Camera
3. Card for Z-Camera
4. Card for synchronise Led's (with a PIC32)
5. Card to use Internet to go to the Matrix forum

regards

That sounds even more interesting! The cameras sound impressive.

Is that for motion capture or VR type stuff?

Hi Ben

It's motion capture from teeth and bones.
