Remote Access in Asset Advisor

Hi,

 

i am trying to use the remote access functionality in manufacturing app.

Web socket server and lua script run on a Raspberry Pi. RealVNC server is installed and running fine.

 

I am able to do file transfer and the tunneling seem to be working.

However nothing appeared when i clicked on Connect.

My wsems log just say that TUNNEL ENDED without any specific error:

Here is my config.json:

{  
    "ws_servers":   [{
        "host": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "port": 443
    }],
    "http_server":  {
        "host": "localhost",
        "port": 8000,
        "ssl": false,
        "authenticate": false,
	"use_default_certificate" : true
    },
    "appKey":   "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
    "logger":   {
        "level":    "INFO"
    },
    "auto_bind":    [{

            "gateway":  false
    }],
    "certificates": {
        "validate": false,
        "allow_self_signed":true
    },
    "ws_connection":    {
        "encryption":   "ssl",

I fixed the problem by installing tightvncserver and set tunnel address to 127.0.0.1:5901

Can you try the same by running EMS version 5.3.4 ?

Hi Bach,

 

Are you able to see the Asset_PiThing as connected  in composer ? If yes , then are you able to browse the remote properties of this remote thing ?

 

If both is working fine , then there is no issue with lua and ems . Then we need to check the vnc configuration .

Hi,

 

everything is working, except for the VNC.

The VNC should be running. I am able to do remote using other VNC viewers.
