How many instances of the comm driver have to be installed?
« on: February 07, 2017, 06:27:48 PM »
I am building a multi-form project. On the forms I have controls that are part of my PLC program. I have placed a comm driver on each form. Is that correct or do I just need the comm driver on the main form?

TIA

You are doing it correct. Each form needs its own driver instance for the controls to hook to. You can possibly make things easier by using the INIFile features.
