Introduction

OXYGEN’s Ethernet Sender Plugin allows users to send measurement data via UDP cyclically to another OXYGEN instance or other 3rd party application providing the following benefits:

  • Automatic creation of an XML file for OXYGEN Ethernet Receiver configuration on the client side

  • Transmission of actual (non-averaged) data in intervals from 1 to 100 Hz

  • Synchronized data transmission with timestamps

Installation and Licensing

The Ethernet Sender Plugin was an optional feature prior to OXYGEN 7.0 and had to be installed by adding the plugin to: - C:\Users\Public\Documents\Dewetron\Oxygen\Plugins

Since OXYGEN 7.0, the plugin is license-free and automatically included in the OXYGEN installation folder: - C:\Program Files\DEWETRON\OXYGEN\bin

Important: The plugin must not be placed in both paths under any circumstances, otherwise the plugin will not be recognized correctly by OXYGEN.

Whether the plugin has been recognized correctly can be verified in OXYGEN Setup under Plugin Overview.
