Hi,

Has anyone controlled dS2824 - 24 x 16A ethernet relay through labview. If controlled please share me procedure with some examples.

Thanks in advance

Is your boss willing to pay for provided code?

You may have to program it yourself.  They have their own software but I assume you want to integrate it into LabVIEW.   Open a VISA Socket connection to the devices and write and/or Read commands using VISA Write and VISA Read.

The manual seems pretty clear on how to set up the device and the commands to write to it.  Personally, I would set it up to use the ASCII commands and it is quite simple from there.

@crossrulz, exactly.  The hardest part will be to set up the networking either as a private VLAN or on the public network with a DHCP.  The communication is just ordinary command/response.

It appears to use port 17123 (according to a figure, but not documented!!) and default to an address of 

192.168.0.123 so you need to make sure that your computer is on that subnet unless you have a local DHCP server.

then just use a visa address of TCPIP::192.168.0.123::17123::SOCKET and off you go!
