I have a computer with ACDI (license key, yes) and Wysiwyg and a different computer with Pearl simulator.
They are in the same network (192.168.1.x)
However, nothing comes up on Pearl simulator (in setup DMX output menu, no nodes shown)
What am I missing here?
I'd like to connect 2 PCs.
If they(Wysiwyg, ACDI, Pearl simulator) are on the same computer, it works ok.
Please help.
connect 2 PC with ACDI

The Pearl Simulator offers the ACDI nodes only on Windows XP (well, I haven't tested Vista) - not on Win 7. Workaround: you may download and install Windows XP mode for Win 7 (professional or ultimate only - no cost, but a 500 MB download). I haven't tried to connect to another machine via ACDI yet, since my other test machine is in the office. But I can assign ACDI nodes to the 4 output lines, which I couldn't when installed on Win 7. I'd reckon it will work, possibly after tweaking some firewall settings or such.
Quite scary to see IE 6 again...

Setup DMX Output is empty. There is nothing can be added.
My simulator is Pearl 2004 and was on Win7.
Win7 probably could be a problem. I just copied the folder which has Pearl simulator 2004 working on XP. It looks working Ok though.
I'll try to test again with 2 XP computers and contact you again with a result.
Thank you for replies.

On both XP machines, it worked OK.
Computer A : Wysiwyg, ACDI
Computer B : Pearl simulator 2004
In DMX Setup Output, 'ACDI:myname' got showed up, not 'ACDI:Broadcast'
At first, only 'ACDI:Broadcast' was shown but it didn't work.
after a while, 'ACDI:myname' was appeared and I selected that node and it worked successfully.
Please make Pearl Simulator 2008(not 2004 ) and ACDI which would work on Win 7.
Thank you.
