Using PPP via modem

[jo]

I would like to use PPP to send measurement data from a remote client via
modem to a central server.

How can a inform LabView to use the dial up networking connection so that
the data is routed to the modem? I might or might not have both a modem and
a network card in the remote PC.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Humm sounds interesting. I haven't tried that but i would look into possibility of implementing this thru Microsoft WinSock ActiveX control or may be calling WIN API DLL to dial a number. The later i think would be hard to do specially when it comes to send data.
Also check out the Microsoft Telephony ActiveX Automation!!!!
Hope this would atleast give you some direction.

Our Allaince member, Micro-Sys, has written a VI library for using modems
with LabVIEW.. check them out:

http://micro-sys.com/modemnow.htm

"ModemNOW!� Suite enables communication between your LabVIEW program and
modems, fax machines, pagers and the Internet. Monitor and control RS-232
and GPIB instruments. Automatically receive reports. Be instantly informed
of system failures. It even allows you to send data to another computer via
modem."
