Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ RS422()

VIB_NET::RS422::RS422 ( )

Default constructor for the device object

The device must be opened with Open() before it can be used.

Member Function Documentation

◆ GetBit()

Boolean VIB_NET::RS422::GetBit ( UInt32  BitIndex)

Reads the state of one input.

Parameters
BitIndexInput signal index, 0 ... (NumberOfInputs - 1)
Returns
State of the input
Example:
C#: Rs422_Example.cs
Visual Basic: Rs422_Example.vb

◆ Reset()

void VIB_NET::RS422::Reset ( )

Resets the device to default settings.

See also VIB::Rs422::Reset().

◆ SetBit()

void VIB_NET::RS422::SetBit ( UInt32  BitIndex,
Boolean  OnOff 
)

Sets the state of one output.

Parameters
BitIndexOutput signal index, 0 ... (NumberOfOutputs - 1)
OnOffOutput value: on or off
Example:
C#: Rs422_Example.cs
Visual Basic: Rs422_Example.vb

◆ SetSource()

void VIB_NET::RS422::SetSource ( UInt32  BitIndex,
RS422::eOUT_SOURCE  Source,
bool  InvertOutput 
)

Sets the source for an output signal.

For setting the output value manually with Output or SetBit(), the source eOUT_SOURCE::REGISTER has to be selected (default).

Note
The VisionBox AGE-X1 doesn't have a Multiplexer and therefore doesn't support this function
Parameters
BitIndexOutput signal index, 0 ... (NumberOfOutputs - 1)
Sourcesource for the line
InvertOutputtrue = invert line

Property Documentation

◆ Input

VIB_NET::RS422::Input
get

Reads the state of the input signals.

The value is the binary representation of the signals, LSB is BIT0.

Example:
C#: Rs422_Example.cs
Visual Basic: Rs422_Example.vb

◆ NumberOfInputs

VIB_NET::RS422::NumberOfInputs
get

Contains the number of input signals.

◆ NumberOfOutputs

VIB_NET::RS422::NumberOfOutputs
get

Contains the number of output signals.

◆ Output

VIB_NET::RS422::Output
set

Sets the state of the output signals.

Parameters
ValBits 0..15: Binary representation of outputs. The actual number of available outputs is hardware dependent.
Bits 16..31: Mask bits can be used to change only certain outputs. This is particularly useful to control certain outputs by different threads.
If the upper 16 bits of Val are set to zero, all outputs will be set.
Example:
C#: Rs422_Example.cs
Visual Basic: Rs422_Example.vb
Example:
//change BIT0 & BIT1 to on, all other to off
pRS422.Output = (0x3)
//turn BIT1 off, BIT0 stays on
pRS422.Output = ((1<<(16+1)) | 0x00)

◆ Type

VIB_NET::RS422::Type
get

Returns the device type for the current instance, see eDEVICE_TYPE
