Title: Dueling Classics
Post by: kitestrings on December 09, 2024, 03:25:30 PM
The other night I went to open the Local App.  I thought I'd botched the double-click, and tried it again.  It seems I somehow inadvertently launched two sessions, which I didn't think you could do(?)

I'd understood that you could only connect to one Classic at a time, so I set one to 'Kitewind' and, in the other session to 'kitewin2'.  Then, using Alt + tab noticed that I could view them simultaneously.  I assume if I did a split-screen on my desktop I could take my left thumb out of the exercise.

My question is: Is there a way to intentionally open two sessions, because so far I haven't found a way to repeat it ???

You may be able open two windows for the Local app in a browser , but only one of them will communicate at a time.
For example I can open the Local App , and then open up Grahams Classic Monitoring app. But only one of them is going to be talking to the Classic until I close one of them .

Yes, with the wind turbine they share the output, so it'd be nice if I could connect to one in one session; the other in the second, and view them simultaneously.

Thanks.  I'll give it a try.  ~ks

If you have an Android try Grahams Classic Monitoring app because it can easily switch between the two if I remember correctly.
But now that you mention it - if they both have their own IP Address seems like you should be able to connect to each one individually at the same time. I never tried that.
