DrvABPlc Communicator Driver (Custom)

Functional Description

DrvABPlc is a custom Communicator driver in ScadaV6CommExt for field device connectivity. Protocol details follow the source implementation.

Scope and Version

  • Source: ScadaV6CommExt/DrvABPlc.Logic
  • TFM: net8.0
  • Version: 6.0.0

Install and Enable

  1. Deploy driver binaries to Communicator folders.
  2. Activate driver in Administrator → Communicator → Drivers.
  3. Upload configuration and restart Communicator.

Line and Device Configuration

  1. Create a communication line with the proper channel type.
  2. Add device and set address/timeouts.
  3. Set polling options and CmdLine as required by this driver; see Functional notes and configuration (template and source) below for file names, address format, and line keys.

Functional notes and configuration (template and source)

Derived from Logic/Common and device template XML: driver behavior and the Administrator/Communicator fields to set (address, CmdLine, line CustomOptions, template nodes).

Logic location

  • ScadaV6CommExt/DrvABPlc.Logic
  • Common: DrvABPlc.Common

Overrides

OnCommLineStart(), OnCommLineTerminate(), InitDeviceTags(), Session(), SendCommand()

CmdLine / template

  • PollingOptions.CmdLine.Trim();

DeviceConfig properties referenced

PropertyNote
未检测到 DeviceConfig.* 引用(可能使用基类封装)。

Line CustomOptions

KeyDefault
RetryCount
Slot

XML keys (Common)

NodeNote
未在 Common 中解析到 GetChildAs*/AppendElem 节点(或无 Common 工程)。

Code excerpt

86: 
87:         public override void InitDeviceTags()
88:         {
89:             string fileName = PollingOptions.CmdLine.Trim();

88:         {
89:             string fileName = PollingOptions.CmdLine.Trim();
90:             deviceTemplate = new DeviceTemplate();
91:             if (!deviceTemplate.Load(Storage, fileName, out string errMsg))

99:                 //初始化点位
100:                 plcDeviceSession.InitDeviceTags(DeviceTags, deviceTemplate);
101: 
102:                 CanSendCommands = deviceTemplate.Cmds.Count > 0;

105:             InitPlcConnection();
106:             Log.WriteAction($"InitDeviceTags -> Line running");
107:         }
108: 

110: 
111:         public override void Session()
112:         {
113:             base.Session();

112:         {
113:             base.Session();
114:             if (deviceTemplate == null)
115:             {

Troubleshooting

  • No data: line, address, template, connectivity.
  • Template load errors: check logs.
  • Options ignored: verify option scope (line vs device).
