How do I connect to an existing remote system in MAX when it is disconnected. I have tried a few things and am running out of ideas.

Hi Jamie,

In order to help you I need some more information:

Can you tell me what your remote system is?

What is consists of? eg PXI 1000 chassis with specific modules?

What are you trying to communicate with it from? - a local PC?

Is the system hardware NI or third party?

What operating system are you using? eg Windows XP?

Have you installed the drivers for the hardware? Did you remember to install the drivers after you had installed the hardware and reboot?

Did you get the found new hardware wizard popup when you installed the hardware?

What are the methods you have already tried for connecting to it?

In what way are you communicating between your local and remote system?

ie via Serial port? TCP communication?

Hi Jamie,

Do you still require assistance in connecting to an existing remote system in MAX when it is disconnected?

Or have you figured it out yourself?

If you have sussed it on your own it would still be worth while posting the details of what you have done and how you have accomplished it. It would benefit others who come across this forum, encoutering similar difficulties.
