Example UDP ASCII

In the following example, character strings are received with the help of the Multi-IO-IP component. For this purpose, UDP must be used as the transport protocol.

 

To establish a successful connection, the connection setting of the Multi-IO-IP component must be adapted to the network configuration of the sender and the polar bear computer:

 

Polar bear computer settings

Transmission type: UDP

Enable use of fixed source IP/port

Under "Source IP/Port" set the IP address and port of the polar bear computer. e.g. 192.168.100.65:6543

Under "Destination IP/Port" set the IP address and port of the sender. e.g. 192.168.100.54:6543

 

In the Windows firewall, the UDP port used must be released.
