Hello,

Is it possible to make a raw TCP/IP client on 4DIAC?

I have tryed raw[ip:port] without any success.

Hi,

raw is an encoding layer, not a transport layer.
You can send raw strings via raw[].ip[<ip:port>]

Best regards,
Martin

Hey again

Now that i can send, i'm trying to receive a string. How can this be done?

I have connected a STRING2STRING to the CNF.->REQ and RD_1-> IN but in the Client_1 output says ND.

If i send from the server it increments the events in the CNF of CLIENT_1.

Best regards.

Ok I double clicked on the output of CLIENT_1 and deleted the ND, after that I'm able to see the 123 I'm sending via the socket.

Correction i wrote STRING# while watching the FB

I think this is more like a user error then anything else... I'm a new on 4DIAC or IEC 61499 std.

Anyways now I can see the string on the output of the CLIENT_1 FB but no luck getting that into the STRING2STRING.

Thats strange. Perhaps redraw that part of the application and redownload. If you see the STRING in the CLIENT it has been typified, so the STRING2STRING should be connected.

for me it looks like that the STRING2STRING was not deployed to the device. Can you have a look in the deployment console and check if your string2string is shown there.
