cRIO controller with multiple remote panels

[VdG]

Hi,

i try to have two VIs running on a cRIO controller monitored by the means of remote panel, and by the same host (actually two tabs opened in the same web browser). The first remote panel works perfectly, but when i try to connect to the second one, i get an error "two many user connected on the remote panel". Is it a license issue (i currently have a remote panel license for 5 users installed on my host) or a web server settings issue ? In both case, what can i do to make it work ? Thanks for any help.

Configuration :

- Various cRIO controllers
- LV 2009 f3
- NI-RIO 3.3.0

Hi Vincent,

You need to get additional licenses for your target, not for your host PC as you stated.

See this KB: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/CC65B8E1C3C45D0086256CCD005A1F76?OpenDocument

Hi Kurt,

is it actually necessary to purchase one license, as i only want one user to monitor two VIs and not two users monitor one VI ?

Al the best,

The controller most likely views each tab that you have open as "a connection" to the controller, which is limited to one by default.

Ok Kurt, i agree the cRIO controller can see this case as a multi-users connection. I will either use some secondary front panel container (but does the remote panel handle them correctly ?) or buy a license.

Thanks for the help,

Somehow it works for me: I can run two separate VIs on the host, controlled by two frontpanels. And I don't have a multiuser license.
