Server Automation Guide - ScxV6Object.Property Method

ScxV6Object.Property Method

Gets or sets the value of a database propery of the object.

Parameters

Name
The name of the property to get or set.

Remarks

The Property method performs a similar function to the Interface method, in that both provide access to the properties of the database object. Once important difference is that Property looks up the interface at run time, whereas Interface looks up the property at compile time.

Example:

The following example written in VB.NET shows the Property method being used set the number of retries on a modbus channel to 5.

Dim Svr As ScxV6DbClient.ScxV6Server

' Connect to the server

Svr = New ScxV6DbClient.ScxV6Server

Svr.Connect("MAIN", "", "")

Dim Obj As ScxV6DbClient.ScxV6Object

Obj = Svr.FindObject("Primary Serial Modbus Channel")

Obj.Property("Retries") = 5

' Disconnect

Svr.Disconnect()
