Presales Question
« on: July 30, 2010, 03:03:17 PM »
Hi, I would like to buy  RadarBox 3D and have a question about installation. Is it possible to have the hardware and database installed on a PC running 24/7, (I have one for a weatherstation) and then run the application from a second PC in a home network that I will turn off when not in use?

Best regards
Ulf Widen, Sweden

What do you mean by "run the application from a second PC" ?

If you simply mean remote access to the PC running RadarBox (with Teamviewer, Remote Desktop, pcAnywhere, etc, from another PC) then of course that's possible.

I was more thinking about client/server. The PC I would like to connect RadarBox to is running 24/7 and it's located so I can't use it as a normal PC. Therefore I would like to use another PC in the home network for viewing. Maybe I could use remote acces for that purpose. In that case, can you recommend a really good solution?

I use Teamviewer all the time to access my Radarbox PC from my laptop.  Works great.

Whatever solution you go for, you are going to have to run the RadarBox application on the PC that has the RadarBox attached.

The only configuration I can think of that would qualify as client/server is to run a third-party application like PlanePlotter which can process the TCP/IP data stream from RadarBox.

But, how do you configure the IP address of the Radarbox PC into Planeplotter?

It's cunningly concealed as  Options  ->  Mode-S receiver  ->  AirNav RadarBox  ->  IP Address

Thanks Dave, I missed that one.  I was expecting to find it in the I/O Settings.
