Sending data through a Ethernet port

Hi :smiley:

I want to send data between a computer and the cRIO.
I figure the best way is through a Ethernet cord.

at the very least, i would like to send int numbers or boolean numbers

I would like to do this in java, but i can do it in other languages if possiable

thank you in advance

Use the NetworkTables API. You can add networktables-desktop.jar as a dependency in a java project which can be read in the default networktable java API.

Here are some good examples http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=103352

Can’t you just plug a crossover cable between the two and change your connection type on the driver station? Or is your question more complicated than that?
