CompactLogix Strings

[bradbbarnett]

Hello,

I cannot read strings from a CompactLogix PLC. I saw an example Slc500Strings that did this. I am able to read how many characters exist in the string but not the actual characters. Any advice on how I can get this to work?

Hi, it reads an array of chars, so you have to manually convert the chars to character. Here is an example on the original library: https://github.com/kyle-github/libplctag/blob/master/src/examples/string.c

Thanks a lot, it worked!
