value change using DataSocket can't create value change event on remote computer?

[Weiyuan]

I am trying to create an event on the remote computer:

Local computer:

Change a value in remote computer by DataSocket.

Remote Computer:

create a event: when the value changes.

I can see the value change on the remote computer; however, the value change doesn't cause the "value change event".

Anyone tried this before?  Thanks.

Hi,

Event Structure monitors a specified event based on user interaction on the front-panel objects. However, it does not monitor event generated programmatically like a change in the DataSocket data value. In order to generate a value change event with the DataSocket, you will need to use the "value (signaling)" property node for the DataSocket data or control. This property node sets the value of the control and also generates a Value Change event.

To create the property node, simply right click the control and select "Create>>Property Node>> Value (Signaling)". You can then wire the output from the DataSocket read to this property.

You can also checkout this knowledgebase entry for additional information.

Thanks.  I tested on LabVIEW82, it works.  Unfortunately, the computer I need it has only LV71 which don't have "Value (Signaling)".  Any suggestions.

Value (Signaling) is available in 7.1. In fact, it was introduced in version 7.0.

Thank you. I got it.  It is not next to Signal in 7.1
