Summary:
How to configure a display client to bypass the I/O Server and return data from a local portless driver without a change to the Citect project. 

Solution:
An enhancement in version 6.0 allows a display client configured as a proxi server to be further configured to obtain data from a local portless driver.

To achieve this, configure the display client as a proxi server as detailed in the Citect help topic 'Proxi <I/O server name> Paremeter'.

In the citect.ini file :

[IOSERVER]
Server=1
Name=MyProxi
[PROXI]
IOServer=MyProxi

The following entry will then allow data from portless device IODev1 to be obtained locally by this machine.

[PROXIDEVICES]
IODev1=MyProxi

Note: If many ProxiDevices are configured Citect may be slow to start-up.
