Trouble sending UDP packets to Veristand from LabView using the Data-Sharing-Framework custom device

[marlonpodd]

Hello,

I have a LabView VI that takes in an array of doubles, then using a for-loop it flattens the doubles into a string and then concatenates the string elements into one string that can be sent over UDP. Using the DSF Custom device, I want to receive the UDP packet in Veristand and display the doubles on various data channels within a single thread, which is set up to receive UDP signals with a local port. Only problem is that no matter what I send to Veristand over UDP, it does not display anything, even though I can receive packets from Veristand to LabView. Any tips/recommendations for this? I have attached some sample screenshots below.

See UDP Component Tutorial.md to understand how this plugin can be used in a LabVIEW project.

I read through the UDP Component documentation for the DSF Plugin, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to use the classes listed. Do I need custom VIs from these classes in LabView to send UDP messages to Veristand with the data sharing framework?

Thanks for the help,

Marlon

I believe so. If you think that it is too troublesome. Maybe you can consider another method, like Shared-Variable-Custom-Device-2.0
