Is the "Serial over Ethernet (Program Picaxe connected to another computer over internet)" feature currently functional?
The Help file tells me to use the "Wizard" within Programming Editor, but I can find no "wizard" as such, just a Config. program (which asks me questions I don't know the answer to!) The instructions (SEC.PDF) talk about "Master" and "Slave", but the config. program uses "Client" and "Server". Which is which?
I've tried it on Windows 7 32bit and Windows 10 64bit - and both give error messages (mainly "sec_GetConnectionsList failed with error - 233"). The install program doesn't seem to do anything at all on Windows 10 and nothing significant on Windows 7.
I had a look on the Eltima website and the version of Serial to Ethernet Connector for Windows there is a good 5 years newer than that shipped with Picaxe Editor (Shipped sec_service.exe is 6.1.512.0)
What's the story?
