Q:

The object distribution/syncing (drawings, runlines, waypoints) between primary and remote computer does not work. What can I do?

A: 

If the syncing does not work:


On the remote computer: 

  • Ping the primary computer. Ensure that the remote is on the correct network.

On the primary computer:

  • Start NaviPac, type Services in the Windows search bar, and restart the EIVA Master Service.

On the remote computer: 

  • Restart the EIVA Remote Service
  • Check that the Helmsman is set to Remote. You can check that in the menu bar.

  • Go to C:\ProgramData\EIVA\Services\HttpSettings.xml and change the project to some random project and change it back

  • Change it here, ctrl-s to save and wait a moment wile the remote service updates, and then ctrl-z (for undo) to change it back to original path.
     

On the primary computer: 

  • Close Helmsman's Display
  • Remove the file C:\ProgramData\EIVA\Services\HttpSettings.xml. 
  • Restart NaviPac and Helmsman's Display, and the HttpSettings.xml is automatically recreated.

On the remote computer:

  • This should recreate it. If it does not, restart your computer.

  • Make a new Project on the remote
  • Check UAC, give the services and user more privileges.
  • Restart the computer
