using FP-1601 with two PC's

Is it possible to control two procceses (with two PC's running each labview 6.1) with one FP-1601 module attached to several control and acquisition banks. Some input and output channels of each bank would serve for the first process and others for the second process to be controlled.

it is possible but to use only one PC to control these procceses maybe be better .

you can to connect the FP-1601 to your network and you can to access to it from any PC From your network.

but you have to be careful so that the processes do not have conflicts between itself.

if you explain something to me about the application maybe I can help you.

Yes,

as long as the two computers will not be fighting with each other over what the proper state of an output should be.

Jose,

I have a 3 PC network with 12 fieldPoint banks. I have problem after problem with the watchdog settings and flash memory getting corrupted although my *.iak file never changes. Do you have any of these types of problems? how do you manage you *.iak files? Does each PC have its own?
