crosscomm and openshowvar new version

    Hello!

    First of all, my compliment for your great work! You're done a phantastic job with this application.

    What i would love to see is 2 things:

    1. The release of a DLL to read/write variables (No .NET if possible, the more "plain" the better)

    2. A detailed publication on the TCP-Communication to the Client-App that's running on the KRC.
    Since the KRC's communication partner ist not always a PC, but in many cases a PLC, it would
    be phantastic to be able to communicate with a PLC that is capable of sending/receiving TCP
    strings with a KRC controller. Most modern PLC's (e.g. Beckhoff) support TCP-Communication.
    The standard fieldbus communication is fine for realtime i/o data exchange, but for larger data
    amounts or HMI data, being able to access KRL variables directly with the PLC would be great.

    I'd be more than happy to assist with some beta-testing, as i have access to KRC-controllers as
    well as PLC's.

    Regards, Peter

    Ive been working on making a plugin version of this app and have it partially working but just dont have a whole lot of time. hopefully ill have something very soon. just a couple of bugs that ive never seen before that are slapping me around. i need to go through some of my old code and see what it might be.

    Hi,

    I was wondering if openshowvar also work on KR C4. I tried it and I get an error message saying that some dependency libraries are missing. Can you please give me some tips or help?

    In detail the error I get when I try to run KUKAVARPROXY.EXE is the following:
    "Run-time error '339':
    Component 'cswsk32.ocx' or one of its dependency not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid"

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    I have been tested opencrosscomm today on my VKRC2 (Win98).

    First I copied opencrosscomm files under C:\OPENCROSSCOMM\ on KRC2 and started OpenCrossComm.Exe on KRC2 side.

    Then on my computer , connected via LAN to KRC2, I started OpenShowVars.

    But on KRC2 side (which is OpenCrossComm), there was an error message. Here is ERROR MESSAGE


    Title: IMSCROSSCOMM
    Text:
    Runtime Error: 13
    Type Mismatch

    Ok, I couldn't figure out what I am doing wrong?
