I have two computers, each computer has an installed NI PCI 8512 card with one port. Between these cards I have connected a line to check if the communication works between the cards. From MAX i can see that both cards seem to work. If I open something called the NI-XNET Bus Monitor I can communicate between the two computers without any problem (i think). At least both computers receives the messages im sending from the Bus Monitor on the other computer.
I have also succeeded to open the example file called: NI-CAN/Frame API/Basic/CAN Receive.vi from the NI Example Finder. This program can receive messages from the NI-XNET Bus Monitor running on the other computer. No problems so far. I have also succeded to open the example file: CAN Transmit - event based.vi from the same folder which the Bus Terminal running on the other computer has picked up messages from without any problems. So far so good.
My problem occurs when I open CAN Receive on one computer, and CAN Transmit on the other computer. Same example files that was previously used. Between these programs I get no communication to work. No response at all.
What am i doing wrong? Have I misunderstood something really basic?
Thanks in advance.
