To shut the server down execute

Launching the TCP/IP server allows full control over the computer, including the execution of code. The data between client and server is not encrypted, and no authentication is required. The IP white list allows to reject unknown clients, but only provides a minimal level of security. Only use the server on a private and trusted network.

 

 

Matlab Remote Client

On the remote computer, execute the following commands in the Matlab command window:

All calls to the server are synchronous. This means the client Matlab console is blocked until the server finishes executing the command.

(The TCP/IP server needs to be started on the remote computer first)

 

To retrieve the hSI handle from an already running ScanImage instance, execute the following command:
