7. SDK Module
The SDK page has two main uses:
- Configure the SDK Send/Receive IP and Port of two multicast networks.
- Start/Stop SDK mode.
iFSim.Ready Send indicates to which multicast network the iFSim.Ready software sends data packets of hardware signals (Digit Input, Encoder, Analog).
iFSim.Ready Receive indicates the multicast network from which iFSim.Ready software reads data packets of hardware signals (Digit Output, Display, Servo, PWM).
Start SDK at iFSim.Ready Start indicates that the SDK mode is enabled by default when the software is started.
Click the Start SDK button to start the SDK mode.
Click the Stop SDK button to stop the SDK mode.
Please notice that the hardware signals set by the SDK mode may be overwritten by the Profile, so it is recommended to stop running Profile when the SDK mode is started.
See Appendix C for the format of SDK hardware status packet and hardware status control packet.
