Using zenon in a network requires a running Windows network. In detail the following requirements have to be fulfilled:

1

TCP/IP as the network protocol

2

A working name resolution

The name resolution can be realized with DNS, WINS or local HOST files.

3

Administrator rights

You must at least have local administrator rights on the different computers, because the control system has to register two services for the network.

 

info Info

You can check the first two requirements by opening the DOS box and entering the command:

ping COMPUTER NAME

and getting a positive response.

 

For network operation the control system needs two services, which are automatically installed with the control system:

ZenSysSrv.exe

This service is automatically started with the operating system and is responsible for the network communication of the Editor. This service uses TCP port 1101, which must not be blocked by any other application.

ZenNetSrv.exe

This service is automatically started with the zenon Runtime and is responsible for the network communication of the Runtime. This service uses TCP port 1100, which must not be blocked by any other application.
