    Hello, I´m a new user and I´m developing a ethernet based motion controller.
    When I set up the interface to communicate with my controller, i can´t send data to the controller.
    What am i doing wrong?
    Is the network interface based on UDP or TCP? Right now i´m using TCP.

    Thanks in advance

    UDP. TCP is slower due to transmission error testing.
