It takes roughly two minutes every time to deploy a script/protocol as DIS needs to fall back every time to polling as can be seen in the screenshot. Therefore is there a reason why DIS uses eventing and could it use polling by default instead? Or is there a way to configure polling for specific connections?
Hi Michiel, just had a look at the code of DIS, and the connection should switch to polling after two seconds when eventing doesn’t work. Strange that it takes much longer time in your case. From DIS side I’m afraid there isn’t much we can do to solve this.
Hi Michiel,
I have not tried this but I think you could try to edit the ConnectionSettings.txt (C:\Skyline DataMiner\WebPages) and set polling to a specific value (by default it’s set to polling=0, meaning no polling). You can apply this connection setting on a specific IP (range). For more information see ConnectionSettings.txt.
Thanks for your answer Jens.
I believe it would be ideal if we could configure it in DIS/client as it requires access to the system in order to make the changes you suggest. Next to this if your public IP changes it will no longer work and you would need to reconfigure the file again.
After updating to the latest DIS version, this was solved.
