Why does Measurement & Automation Explorer Report my Real-Time Target System State as "Connected - Inconsistent IP Settings?"Primary Software: LabVIEW Modules>>Real-Time ModulePrimary Software Version: 8.5.1 Primary Software Fixed Version: Secondary Software:
Problem: I installed LabVIEW Real-Time 8.6 on my target, but I can no longer FTP to the target or connect to it through LabVIEW. I noticed Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) identifies the System State as "Connected - Inconsistent IP Setting." What does this mean and how do I fix it? Solution: MAX identifies a remote system as "Connected - Inconsistent IP Setting" when the host machine has a DHCP or static IP but the target has a linked-local IP address. This conflicting system setup creates network problems between the host and target, which is why FTP and LabVIEW fail to connect. To fix this problem, set the target to a static IP address or connect the target to the appropriately networked device to assign a DHCP address. Another solution is to connect the host and target using a crossover cable. Related Links: KnowledgeBase 27K9UNKN: How Do I Connect to a LabVIEW Real-Time (RT) Controller with a Crossover Cable?
