HI, I've tried working with Route Control v9. 0 and Simit V10. 0 for simulating the AS with a Virtual Controller but the Route Control Server is not connecting to the VC. Any information on how to get this working? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

All the normal setup for a real AS and OS/RC applies (RC wizard, compile, download, activate/update RC, etc.) I trust you achieved all those items, if not, try to review the manual again, or ask for specific help, I can point you in the right spot. The first time we did RC connection (1+ years ago, so my memory is a little rusty) we ran into a couple issues, but it was resolved. |

From the screenshot it looks like your PC has auto-configured class B network 169.254.x.x which usually means you've set up DHCP but can't see a DHCP server. Unless you've chosen for some reason to do this in your AS/OS config, that could be part of the problem. If you've set up for everything with ISO communication (which may be another reason you have 169.254 IPs), try to reconfigure everything as TCP/IP and use a private subnet like 192.168.x.x and try that instead. I can't recall if SIMIT VC and RC (in combination) are compatible with ISO yet (RC fully supports ISO with a real AS). Additionally, I'm not going to say its impossible, but I doubt you can fit all the code required for a RC test inside demo mode. In SIMIT demo you are limited to ~30 signals. We've only deployed RC and SIMIT VC with full licensed mode. |

Yes I agree RCC will connect to the RC Server through localhost if installed as a single station. However a VC or real AS will not connect to an RC server unless you've fully configured appropriate IPs or are using ISO. Unless you assigned and downloaded your VC also to a unique IP in the 169 subnet and assigned that additional IP address to the same machine as an alternate IP or on a second NIC plugged into the same dead end DHCP switch (since you are also running SIMIT and VC on the same single station you have to host all the IPs for your system in one machine) you don't have a communication path , that is all I was trying to point out. It may be you've configured it all correctly, and you just can't do it because you're only using SIMIT demo mode. I don't suppose any other experts here have any experience trying to use SIMIT demo for RC? Its not a very practical application/test IMO. |

You can check in the Route Control manual v9.0 chapter 15.7.5 for the RC Server States. If you are not in Activated state, then RC clients can't connect to the RC server. You can't get to Activated state without a good connection to all AS's used in the RC connections. You have to try a real AS, or figure get a non-demo SIMIT license to move further IMO. |
