Title: Visual Basic Code
Post by: Tim C on March 28, 2004, 09:06:32 AM
Support,   Is their any way for us "Visual Basic" users to post Code or ocx files on your site.  I have alot of VB functions and code associated with your PLC's. I know alot of other people do to. I think this would be very helpfull to people just getting started. At least here in the US, VB is the most widely used here.   What do you all think?

That's a good idea.  Apart from posting code samples directly here I'm betting they'd be willing to host your stuff on their "User's Application Notes" page (http://www.tri-plc.com/applications/userapp.htm) or something similar.   Simply allowing people to post attachments in the forums might be risky, though.

I'm just starting a project to communicate via MODBUS with the Tri-PLC so user samples would be a boon for me.

Do you mean you wish to share those OCX function and maybe source codes with other users? That is very nice! You can archive them into a zip file and email us a short description about the content and we will post it at our "Application" page. We may start a separate forum board after accumulating sufficient postings.

Yes, I will share what i have. But before i send it to you i will need to remove some of the references to textbox's, listbox's....ext in VB and add alot more comments to it. Give me a little time to clean it up. I may be able to send it to you in a week or two.

I have created a code module that allows reading and writing to the Tri-plc using host commands for a project I recently worked on. If anyone would like a copy of the code to use in your own VB projects send me an email at bferry@blftech.com and I will send you the code. I am also writing an HMI package in VB to use with the Modbus drivers to communicate to the Tri-plc's as well. This still needs some work but is looking very promising.

Thanks,

Brian Ferry
