RTServer provides TCP/IP based real time data streams to remote PICS clients (running RTClient) across a network. By using TCP/IP, the distance traversed may be arbitrarily long, however, one should consider the bandwidth that will be used by the PICS applications (and the displays they may be rendering). Some PICS applications automatically subscribe to ALL data points (e.g. RtdbDDE, DEU, etc.) and should be either avoided on remote clients, or those clients should be tuned to run with a slower sample rate (the default rate is 0.1 seconds -- or as fast as things change, whichever is slower).
Each instance of RTServer supports up to 30 concurrent client connections.
