Syntax

C#

public Task<ResultHandle> AddDeviceNotificationExAsync(

    int[]? args,
    CancellationToken cancel
)

This object can be used to store user specific data (tag data)

Implements

IAdsNotificationsAddDeviceNotificationExAsync(String, NotificationSettings, Object, Type, Int32, CancellationToken)

Remarks

Because notifications allocate TwinCAT system resources, a complementary call to DeleteDeviceNotificationAsync(UInt32, CancellationToken) should always be called when the notification is not used anymore.
