I am using an ebc in a 6 slot rack connected to a pc. I am only using this to get inputs from photo eys. I am having problems with my data turn around time. it takes 15ms to get the data from the ebc to the computer. I am using the ethernet sdk and visual basic. Is there a faster way to get the data.

    From the SDK readme file:

    * If EBC access isn't as fast as you'd like, try HEIReadIOEx and/or HEIWriteIOEx. They are MUCH

    faster if you are accessing multiple devices.

    If that does not do it, you may need to switch to C++ http://forum1.automationdirect.com/board/frown.gif
