Issue Details

When transferring an image from a PC to an industrial controller (IC) using a TCP connection programmed with a third-party toolkit, the calibration information of the image is lost during the transfer.

Solution

To avoid losing image calibration information during the transfer, it is recommended to use a reliable method for transferring data using TCP communication. One solution could be to avoid using third-party add-ons and instead follow an established example project for guidance. For instance, referring to the example project Networking >> TCP & UDP >> Simple TCP.lvproj can provide insight into how to properly transfer data using TCP communication.
 

By following a proven example project, the proper handling of the image data can be ensured and the risk of losing calibration information can be minimized. It is also important to test the transfer process thoroughly and verify that the calibration information is preserved throughout the transfer.
