Checking different members of a datasubscriber
« on: June 27, 2024, 03:06:33 PM »
Hello,
I am using Datasubcriber2 to check 8 different bits, but i think i may be calling the values wrong. Other examples i have seen are only calling on one bit at a time.
This is a snippet of my code:
Code: [Select]
        If e.Values(0) = True Then
            shutcut.Value = initial0 + 1
        End If
        If e.Values(1) = True Then
            sc_call.Value = initial1 + 1
        End If
        If e.Values(2) = True Then
            boxpos.Value = initial2 + 1
        End If
        If e.Values(3) = True Then
            boxblock.Value = initial3 + 1
        End If
        If e.Values(4) = True Then
            loomguard.Value = initial4 + 1
        End If
        If e.Values(5) = True Then
            mispick.Value = initial5 + 1
        End If
        If e.Values(6) = True Then
            patalarm.Value = initial6 + 1
        End If
        If e.Values(7) = True Then
            tension.Value = initial7 + 1
        End If

The error i get is for e.Values(1), which says 'Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.' but i cam calling member 1 of the datasubscriber right?

I may be doing this wrong, which is why i am asking.

If you have 8 addresses in PLCAddressValueItems that are not an array, the DataReturned event will fire 8 different times. To know what address the value is returned for check e.PLCAddress

So, I specified the PLCAddress on the the PLCAddressValueItems for each member. Will I need to define that in the code as well?

If so would it just be the same structure just like this?

Code: [Select]
        If e.PLCAddres = "B18:0/1" Then
            shutcut.Value = initial0 + 1
        End If

I was hoping to be able to check each individual member for a T/F statement to add the values

You also need to check the value
Code: [Select]
        If string.compare(e.PLCAddres,"B18:0/1",True)=0 AndAlso string.compare(e.Values(0),"True",True)=0 Then
            shutcut.Value = initial0 + 1
        End If
[code]

Will the e.Value always remain as e.Value(0) or will it move to e.Value(1) in correspondence with the member values?

It will always be in the zero element. Sounds like you will need to store the values until all have been received then do your addition.
