The network analyzer executable module can function either as a local server or as a remote server of COM automation.
The Local server runs on the same PC with the automation controller and each of the programs is executed as an individual application in a separate window. COM technology is used in this case (See figure below).

The Remote server and the automation controller run on different PCs connected by LAN. DCOM (Distributed COM) technology is used in this case (See figure below). When using DCOM, configure the local network by means of DCOM Windows tools.
The same automation controller is used for the both COM and DCOM technology. Some changes to the user program may be required in operators, which establish connection with the server. Moreover, DCOM technology requires additional settings of the LAN performed by the LAN administrator.
