Read from or write to the NodeType property.

  • Lua

  • C#

-- Read from the NodeType
syslib.getvalue("<OBJECT FULL PATH>.NodeType")

-- Write to the NodeType
syslib.setvalue("<OBJECT FULL PATH>.NodeType",
    syslib.model.codes.NodeTypeMode.NODETYPEOTHER)
TcpConfig tcpcfg = new TcpConfig() { HostNameOrIp = "localhost", Port = 6512 };
SecurityCredentials sc = new SecurityCredentials() { ProfileName = "<username>", Password = "<password>" };
StatelessInterface sli = new StatelessInterface(tcpcfg);

// Read from the NodeType
Result result = sli.ReadValue(sc, new ReadItem("<OBJECT FULL PATH>.NodeType"));
// Write to the NodeType
Result result = sli.WriteValue(sc, new WriteItem(NodeTypeMode.NODETYPEOTHER, "<OBJECT FULL PATH>.NodeType"));
