dacs7

Data access S7 is a library to connect to S7 plcs for reading and writing data.

NuGet

PM>  Install-Package Dacs7

Description

Dacs7 is used to connect to a SIEMENS Plc by using the RFC1006 protocol to perform operations.

Sample-Code

Open and close a connection to the PLC

//create an instance of the client
var client = new Dacs7Client("127.0.0.1:102,0,2");

//connect to the plc. If the connection could not be established
//you will get an exception here.
await client.ConnectAsync();

//Check if the client is connected. If yes, than close the connection.
if(client.IsConnected)
    await client.DisconnectAsync();

Using tag methods

This kind of methods are the low level methods for communicate with the PLC.

Read and Write byte data

var testData1 = new byte[100];
var testData2 = new byte[500];

//Write an array of bytes to the PLC. Syntax = Area.Offset,DataType[,length]
await _client.WriteAsync(KeyValuePair.Create<string, object>("DB1114.0,b,100", testData1), KeyValuePair.Create<string, object>("DB1114.100,b,500", testData2));

//Read an array of bytes from the PLC. Syntax = Area.Offset,DataType[,length]
var readResult = await _client.ReadAsync("DB1114.0,b,100", "DB1114.100,b,500");

Read and Write bit data

// TODO

Using ItemSpecification methods

This kind of functions are the higher level methods. By using this you write and read the data direct by using the .Net type system.

var testData1 = new byte[100];
var testData2 = new byte[500];

//Write an array of bytes to the PLC. 
await _client.WriteAsync(WriteItem.Create<byte[]>("DB1114", 0, testData1), WriteItem.Create<byte[]>("DB1114", 100, testData2));

//Read an array of bytes from the PLC. 
var readResult = await _client.ReadAsync(ReadItem.Create<byte[]>("DB1114", 0, 100), ReadItem.Create<byte[]>"DB1114", 100, 500);
