Examples
Polling ANY_TYPE values.
Observe changing ADS Symbols by polling (Read Polling) (ANY_TYPE)
// To Test the Observer run a project on the local PLC System (Port 851)
using (AdsClient client = new AdsClient())
{
// Connect to target
client.Connect(new AmsAddress(AmsNetId.Local, 851));
// Create Symbol information
var symbolLoader = SymbolLoaderFactory.Create(client, SymbolLoaderSettings.Default);
IValueSymbol cycleCount = (IValueSymbol)symbolLoader.Symbols["TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList._TaskInfo.CycleCount"];
// Reactive Notification Handler
var valueObserver = Observer.Create<object>(val =>
{
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Instance: {0}, Value: {1}", cycleCount.InstancePath, val.ToString()));
}
);
// Take 20 Values in an Interval of 500ms
IDisposable subscription = cycleCount.PollValues(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(500)).Take(20).Subscribe(valueObserver);
Console.ReadKey(); // Wait for Key press
subscription.Dispose(); // Dispose the Subscription
