Phidgets Network Server

Post by mikram »

Hi,

I have a Raspberry Pi 4 and installed all the Phidget libraries.
When I use the HelloWorld example my Vint Hub is shown so that works fine.
I only want to use the Raspberry to send the Data of the connected Vint Hub to the Network so I can access the Phidgets Data on my PC.
Any Tips on how to do that?
Can I simply run the Network server? If yes, how?

Thanks

As long as the Network Server is running on the Pi, you'll be able to access the Phidgets data on your PC if it's on the same network.

For information on getting the Network Server running on the Pi, go here (click on the "Linux" tab in the "Using the Network Server" section). You'll also want to follow the instructions on getting the Network Server to start on boot just in case the Pi resets.

Make sure you install the newest version of the Phidgets drivers on both computers so that the version matches.

Once it's running, you should be able to see your Phidgets in the Phidget Control Panel on your PC. Make sure "List Remote Phidgets" is enabled in File->Options.
