Hi Anthony!
First question:
Yes, it is possible to read and write threshold values. Please refer to the updated WST-documentation as delivered on the installation media of PcVue 11.0 (v1.8, pages #50/#51 and #53/#54).
Second question:
Yes, I do have an example. Consider an imaginary C# client:
var sessionId = "XYZ";
var realTimeData = new RealTimeData();
var vcrVariables = new VariableCollectionRecord();
var vciIterator = new VariableCollectionIterator();
var varTypes = new List();
varTypes.Add(RealTimeData.VariableType.Alarm);
varTypes.Add(RealTimeData.VariableType.Bit);
varTypes.Add(RealTimeData.VariableType.Register);
varTypes.Add(RealTimeData.VariableType.Text);
vciIterator.variableType = varTypes.ToArray();
vcrVariables.variableCollectionIterator = vciIterator;
realTimeData.Browse(sessionId, vciIterator, out vcrVariables);
Yes, if I remember well this feature has been available since 9.0sp2.
It is only that the documentation has not been updated. For v11.0 it has been the first time in five years that we updated the documentation.
