Dear All,
I have a data logging application, written in LabVIEW, which reads temperature data from OPC server, every second, using the data socket VIs.
The problem which I am experiencing, is that the Data socket drivers use Active X and this runs in the User thread. Hence front panel activity on the PC can affect this one second timing. For example, if I open a file dialogue data reading will halt until the dialogue is closed.
Has anyone come across an alternative way to read from OPC server without this problem? Dot net, or TCPIP maybe?
Regards,
Ian
