Re-establishing the Connection to a DataSocket Server from an RT Target.

This example program writes to a DataSocket Server from an RT Target (PXI or FieldPoint). If the DataSocket Server is shut down on the host for any reason, this VI will re-establish a connection to the server and continue to write to the DataSocket item that was written to before the connection was lost. You should notice that this example ignores only the error that dictates that the server is not present, meaning that when the server is present, the VI will reestablish the connection and write to the DataSocket item.

To use these VIs:

1. Download "DS Writer on Target.vi"
2. Make sure the IP address control is set to the IP address of the host machine running the DataSocket Server
3. Run the VI, you should notice that your VI will run fine without showing any errors
4. Switch your execution target back to your host machine
5. Open and run "DS Reader on Host.vi." This VI will automatically launch the DataSocket Server on your host
6. You can switch your execution between your host and target with, and without, the DataSocket Server and you will notice that the VI on the target will continue to run
