RemoteVariableSynchronizer() constructor

Constructor with the default polling time

In the following example, a variableSynchronizer object is created to keep the value of a Speed project variable synchronized with the value of a field variable that identifies the speed of a motor. The project variable, represented by the motorSpeed object, is added to the variableSynchronizer object via the Add() method.

When the field variable changes its value, the motorSpeed_VariableChange method is executed. When the value of motorSpeed (of the field variable), is greater than 200, a warning message is generated. The default polling time is set to full speed.

private void Start() {
        motorSpeed = LogicObject.Owner.GetVariable("Speed");
        variableSynchronizer = new RemoteVariableSynchronizer();
        variableSynchronizer.Add(motorSpeed);
        motorSpeed.VariableChange += MotorSpeed_VariableChange;
    }
    private void MotorSpeed_VariableChange(object sender, VariableChangeEventArgs e) {
        if (motorSpeed.Value > 200) {
            Log.Warning("Speed limit reached!");
        }
    }
    private IUAVariable motorSpeed;
    private RemoteVariableSynchronizer variableSynchronizer;

In the Stop() method, the end of the synchronization when the NetLogic parent node is removed is caused by invoking the Dispose() method.

Constructor with a custom polling time

In the following example, the polling time for RemoteVariableSynchronizer is set to 5000 milliseconds.

public override void Start()
{
    var variable1 = Project.Current.Get<IUAVariable>("Model/Variable1");
    variable1.VariableChange += Variable1_VariableChange;

    synchronizer = new RemoteVariableSynchronizer(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(5000));
    synchronizer.Add(variable1);
}

private void Variable1_VariableChange(object sender, VariableChangeEventArgs e)
{
    Log.Info($"Variable1 {e.NewValue}");
}

public override void Stop()
{
    synchronizer.Dispose();

    var variable1 = Project.Current.Get<IUAVariable>("Model/Variable1");
    variable1.VariableChange -= Variable1_VariableChange;
}

RemoteVariableSynchronizer synchronizer;
