This article provides a sample project using the GalilTools COM library for setting up two TCP message handles. Using such an approach, Embedded DMC code can send data to two channels (for example a data storage channel and a user interface channel).
Concepts
- unsolicited messages over TCP (in lieu of default UDP)
- the onMessage() event
- routing messages with the {En} notation in the MG command
- moving remote handles with the HS command
- multiple GalilTools COM objects
- connecting with special options
Details/Special Instructions
- VB 2010 Express
- GalilTools 1.6.0.460
- Install GalilTools before using Demo (This installs and registers the Galil COM component)
- 3 Ethernet handles are required for this approach. This demo requires an 8 handle controller because it configures the message handles to G and H.
