Checking the SocketServer Version
refers to the web page that is integrated in the firmware that comes
pre-installed on your DeviceMaster platform, which provides an interface to TCP/
IP socket mode configuration and services. If you install an NS-Link device driver,
an NS-Link version of SocketServer loads on the DeviceMaster.
Note: Technical Support recommends that you update to the latest version of
SocketServer before installing an NS-Link device driver or configuring
socket ports.
Use the following procedure to check the SocketServer version on the
DeviceMaster and check the ftp site for the latest version.

If necessary, open PortVision DX > Start/Programs > Comtrol > PortVision DX >
PortVision DX or use the desktop shortcut and scan the network.
2.
Check the SocketServer version number of the Software Version for the
DeviceMaster.
