Tip |
|
|---|---|
 |
Cyclic unicast UDP messages that have their destination port in the UDP port range of the interface are displayed automatically in the connection table, even if no corresponding modules have been defined and ibaPDA was not started before. You can create modules for these links easily with a right click on the Generic UDP interface icon in the tree view and select Autodetect in the context menu.
By applying Autodetect, a Generic Unicast UDP module with 32 analog signals (data type FLOAT) and 32 digital signals is created for each link. |

The Autodetect functionality only works for UDP unicast messages. |
