Custom CLIENT FB with additional SDs [message #1833507] Thu, 15 October 2020 07:13 Go to next message

Hello,

I need to create something like a CLIENT FB to send multiple(more than 2) values via TCP to a Python script running on a computer for visualization. Using the CLIENT_2 FB works fine but I would like to use more SDs.

If I create a custom GEN_CLIENTx class in forte, is it possible to create the FB in the IDE and assign it to the .cpp and .h files? Or could I just create CLIENT_3, CLIENT_4 etc. in the IDE and make them use the GEN_CLIENT code?

I would appreciate it very much, if someone could give me a tip about the best way to solve this.

Thanks in advance.

You just need to create the CLIENT_3 and so on in the IDE, keeping the interface and just adding the SD/RD according to it and forte will handle it automatically.

Just a note:

CLIENT_3 has 3 data to send (SD) and 3 to receive (RD)
CLIENT_3_0 has 3 data to send (SD) and 0 to receive (RD)
CLIENT_0_3 has 0 data to send (SD) and 3 to receive (RD)

you can create any combination according to what you need

Hi Niklas,

" Or could I just create CLIENT_3, CLIENT_4 etc. in the IDE and make them use the GEN_CLIENT code?" - exactly
