Problem with Datasocket

[sandeep v]

While transfering data using datasocket it showing an error 1182(Error in parsing DataSocket URL). What is the reason for this error. After execution data socket server is shoeing information about datatransfer(ie. no of packet received, no of packets sent)
I am attaching both VIs with this.

Hi Sandeep,

Make sure that you are using the correct syntax of the URL connection (dstp://[computer name or IP of DS server]/[name of data item]). I normally use the standard URL "dstp://localhost/data" when the DS server is running on the same machine.

I was able to reproduce the 1182 error by specifying the URL connection as "dstp:/localhost/data" (missing "/").

By the way, the "slide" indicator in the "DS Read Data.vi" has has a transparent slide, so you would not be able to see if any data is transferred. Use a new slide instead.
