Can the GEM send to SEG and the DashBox at the same time?

Discuss anything which doesn't fall into the other categories here.

We've recently been in contact with the manufacturer of the WiFi/Ethernet module we use and they've implemented a way to have 2 separate TCP connections (one is strictly Client mode). We're working on implementing this into our system.

Ethernet and WiFi have an option to use a "Mixed" mode, what happens is that there's a setting which will kill any connection after X seconds of inactivity ("idle time"). The WiFi/Ethernet doesn't have that option.

Did anything ever come of this? I have a combo module and I do not love having to change back to server mode to make tweaks! :)

It's implemented depending on the WiFi/Ethernet module you have. If you go to Device Management and the F/W version is a 4.##.## series, it should work.

Install the latest COM/ENG firmware, then go to the GEM Setup Page. The "Network" section controls the TCP2 connection (which is Client only).
