Connecting the BCS directly to a PC I can access it just fine. Plugging the BCS into the router I can see it using arp -a
Pinging the BCS's address gives the error Destination Host Unreachable

HELP!

Along with the before mentioned analog input capabilities here are some items that would be nice to have: Power indicator light, there is currently no quick method of knowing the system is receiving power. Connection/loss of connection status light.. possible? Plus output terminals for alarm or remo...

error in the ladder logic...

I tried resetting the BCS and reloading the config files. Same result. The config settings for process 2 have an error so I need to redo that process... oh well

Nope, that didn't do it either... process 2 still won't respond. Turns out the error is in the sys.cfg file...

The OS is currently Windows XP Embedded. VB.Net would be my choice based on my years as a developer.

Got it. OK, since it is a thin-client, you have networking built in. You can use a cross-over network cable to attach directly to the BCS so you don't need any router or other hardware. Just set a static IP address on both the BCS and the thin client and plug them together. Your choices from there ...

Can you elaborate a little more? The definition of a "thin client" is one that is purely a network device. Thin Client PC running Windows Embedded mounted in the controls cabinet. Running Opera as the browser (only browser that would display and refresh properly) interfaced with a Hope In...
