Is it possible to determine when a tcpclient object's connection has been lost?
When I try to use the "Connected" property I get a compile error that it does not exist.
Thanks.

Determine alias version of screen
I have a screen which displays information about several machines depending on which alias is loaded. How can I determine which alias is currently loading in scripting? I have some background script which changes is job priority based on which machine you are actively looking at (to reduce update de...

Re: Mirrored gauges and multiple needles
You can display multiple needles on the "same" gauge by placing a second gauge on top of your first gauge with the same appearance, size, etc. and a different needle color. Then, under the "General" tab, uncheck "Scale" and check "Transparent" (this hides all but the needle from the second gauge). T...

Re: Serial port (RS232) Communications
Thank you.
Figured out that the cable I was using needed to be a cross-over cable.

Re: Serial port (RS232) Communications
Hi Mark,
When I switch the port from COM1 to COM2 (232 to 485) the communications work. Is there something special I need to do to communicate using RS232?

Re: Serial port (RS232) Communications
Hi Mark, I initialize FileName before I set Write to true in a testing screen script. The bool "Write" then remains true until the test is complete. Thus, the file is opened once (erasing the file if it already exists) and only closed once across the entire test. I did test writing several lines to ...

Serial port (RS232) Communications
I've been trying to get a T4A to talk over serial to an external device via RS232 without luck. For some reason I'm not every receiving any bytes on the T4A. This is the code in my script file: namespace Neo.ApplicationFramework.Generated { using System; using System.Drawing; using Neo.ApplicationFr...

Re: Tags not updating on T7A when value changes
Hi Mark, I did try another switch and once again couldn't reproduce the glitch. Strangely enough, I decided to retry the original switch and, magically, the glitch is no longer occurring. I have no idea what was causing the problem in the first place, but it somehow fixed itself ??? (which worries m...

Re: Sharing Code/Projects
Hi Bennanio, I've never shared multiple projects, but I do have some scripting files which are auto-generated externally from iX developer. To update these files, I usually copy the new files into the project directory, overwriting the old ones, then tell iX developer to rebuild the project. I think...

Re: Tags not updating on T7A when value changes
Hi Mark, I placed a HUB between the PLC and HMI to try and capture the fault. Strangely enough, I can't get the HMI to "freeze" with the hub in place. The only reason I can think of for the change is the switch normally between the HMI and PLC is full duplex while the hub is only half duplex, thus s...
