Project.Tcp_Client(deviceName or ID)

Example:
Project.Tcp_Client("Tcp_Client1").SubMember

Alternative Example:
Project.Tcp_Client(1).SubMember

This gives access to all further members of the device "Tcp_Client" from the Configuration dialog. Using the Project object is an alternative to addressing the device directly by entering its name. The Project object allows to address the device through its name or ID.

Substituting the ID with a dynamic variable allows automation. Actions can be performed on many devices of the same type simultaneously, e.g. by using for-loops:
For i = 1 to 10 {
  Project.Tcp_Client(i).Enable = False
}

Tcp_ClientName.Disable

Example:
Tcp_Client1.Disable

Alternative Example:
Project.Tcp_Client(1).Disable

This disables the TCP Client connection in the Configuration dialog as if the "Enable" check box in the window was unchecked. Use the .Enable member to reverse this command.

Tcp_ClientName.Enable

Example:
Tcp_Client1.Enable

Alternative Example:
Project.Tcp_Client(1).Enable

This enables the TCP Client connection in the Configuration dialog as if the "Enable" check box in the window was checked. Use the .Disable member to reverse this command.

Tcp_ClientName.IpAddress

Example:
vstring = Tcp_Client1.IpAddress

Alternative Example:
vstring = Project.Tcp_Client(1).IpAddress

This returns the IP address of the TCP Client connection as a string. The result could look as follows: 10.169.80.10
The first example shows how to use it with a string variable named "vstring".

You could also write it into a Widget, e.g. a Label via the script: Label1.Text = Tcp_Client1.IpAddress
or simply display it in the Debug Logger: DebugMessage(Tcp_Client1.IpAddress)

In return, you can also assign an IP address to the TCP Client connection. WD automatically connects to it afterwards.
Tcp_Client1.IpAddress = "10.169.80.10"

Tcp_ClientName.IsConnected

Example:
vstring = Tcp_Client1.IsConnected

Alternative Example:
vstring = Project.Tcp_Client(1).IsConnected

This member returns the connection status for the TCP Client connection as a Boolean value. The result is "True" if the connection is established and "False" if it is not.
The first example shows how to use it with a string variable named "vstring".

You could also write it into a Widget, e.g. a Label via the script: Label1.Text = Tcp_Client1.IsConnected
or simply display it in the Debug Logger: DebugMessage(Tcp_Client1.IsConnected)

Tcp_ClientName.IsEnabled

Example:
vstring = Tcp_Client1.IsEnabled

Alternative Example:
vstring = Project.Tcp_Client(1).IsEnabled

This member returns the status of the check box "Enable" for the TCP Client connection in the Configuration dialog as a string or Boolean value. The result is "True" if the connection is enabled and "False" if it is currently not enabled.
The first example shows how to use it with a string variable named "vstring".

You could also write it into a Widget, e.g. a Label via the script: Label1.Text = Tcp_Client1.IsEnabled
or simply display it in the Debug Logger: DebugMessage(Tcp_Client1.IsEnabled)

Tcp_ClientName.LastMessageReceived

Example:
vstring = Tcp_Client1.LastMessageReceived

Alternative Example:
vstring = Project.Tcp_Client(1).LastMessageReceived

This returns the last message that was received from the TCP Client connection as a string value.
The first example shows how to use it with a string variable named "vstring".

You could also write it into a Widget, e.g. a Label via the script: Label1.Text = Tcp_Client1.LastMessageReceived
or simply display it in the Debug Logger: DebugMessage(Tcp_Client1.LastMessageReceived)

Tcp_ClientName.Port

Example:
vint = Tcp_Client1.Port

Alternative Example:
vint = Project.Tcp_Client(1).Port

This returns the port number of the TCP Client connection in the Configuration dialog as an integer value. The result could look as follows: 10001
The first example shows how to use it with an integer variable named "vint".

You could also write it into a Widget, e.g. a Label via the script: Label1.Text = Tcp_Client1.Port
or simply display it in the Debug Logger: DebugMessage(Tcp_Client1.Port)

In return, you can also assign another port to the TCP Client connection. WD automatically connects to it afterwards.
Tcp_Client1.Port = 10002

Tcp_ClientName.Send(data)

Example:
Tcp_Client1.Send("This is my time: " + Now)

Alternative Example:
Project.Tcp_Client(1).Send("This is my time: " + Now)

This allows to send a custom message to the connected TCP server.

Literal text should always be enclosed in either single or double quotation marks; otherwise, the text is handled like a variable. The example shows, how both can be combined. The global variable "Now" sends the current date and time.
