|
| CogCommCard |
The CogCommCard class represents a single VisionPro Communication Card
installed in the system.
VisionPro comm cards are hardware devices designed to handle communication between a VisionPro vision system and the outside world. VisionPro comm cards utilize dedicated real-time processors to manage I/O. This allows VisionPro vision systems to integrate with demanding real-time control scenarios, and reserves PC hardware resources for image processing and machine vision related tasks. VisionPro comm cards support one or more communication modules, each communication module supports a different type or style of communication. For example, a single VisionPro comm card may support discrete (digital) inputs and outputs, and/or Ethernet based Factory Floor Protocols (FFP) such as EtherNet/IP. This class cannot be constructed. Instances must be retrieved from a CogCommCards collection. This class provides access to the communication capabilities of a VisionPro Communication Card via its supported module interfaces.
|
| CogCommCards |
A collection containing every
CogCommCard installed in the system.
Upon construction, CogCommCards is automatically initialized to contain one instance for CogCommCard found in the system. |
| CogDiscreteIOAccess |
Instances of CogDiscreteIOAccess class are held by the
CogCommCard class.
CogDiscreteIOAccess is used to factory/initialize instances of the precision I/O event system running on the comm card by calling CreatePrecisionIO . |
| CogEthernetPort | The CogEthernetPort class supports configuring an Ethernet port present on a device. Use the CreateEthernetPort method of CogEthernetPortAccess to factory/initialize instances of the CogEthernetPort class. Ethernet settings are written to the Comm Card using WriteSettings(CogEthernetPortSettings). These settings are stored in flash memory directly on the Comm Card. When a VisionPro application first connects to a Comm Card, the Comm Card automatically attempts to bring the Ethernet port interface "UP" using the stored settings. Later, when the VisionPro application exits, the Comm Card will automatically bring the Interface "DOWN", removing the card from the network. Both the Link (physical connection present) and the Interface (IP settings activated) need to be in the "UP" state for the Ethernet port to participate in an IP network. When the link or interface is "DOWN", the Ethernet port cannot communicate over an IP network. Use IsLinkUp to see if the Link is in the "UP" state. When the Link is up, the Ethenet port is physically connected to a network and can physically transmit and receive data. Use IsInterfaceUp to see if the Interface is in the "UP" state. When the Interface is up, the Ethernet port has been activated with IP network settings and can participate in an IP network. Use WriteSettings(CogEthernetPortSettings) and ReadSettings to read and write network settings to the Comm Card. Use BringInterfaceUpAsync and BringInterfaceDownAsync to manually bring the interface "UP" and "DOWN" using the settings stored on the Card. Use ReadActiveSettings to read the currently active settings while the Interface is "UP". The currently active settings may be different from the settings stored on the card in cases where the card is configured for DHCP, or if something (i.e. PROFINET) changes the active settings without also writing them to the storage location on the card. Note that CogEthernetPort does not have exclusive control over the Ethernet port hardware. The Ethernet port interface may already be "UP" when a CogEthernetPort is created. Furthermore, the state of the Ethernet interface may report changes and events that were _not_ initiated from user calls into its own properties and methods. Note also that the lifetime of this object is not related to the state ("UP" or "DOWN") of the Ethernet port interface. Disposing the CogEthernetPort object will not affect the state of actual Ethernet settings running on the card (even though exiting the _process_ will bring the network interface "DOWN"). |
