Citect Function

[Guest Guest_jungler]

hi,guys I created a new task "TaskNew("Animation", "infeed", 4)", it needs to read the status of an infeed sensor from PLC before starting and it just runs for 5 seconds. If I use "Reread()" to update the data, it takes a long time to complete data refreshing and the animation is therefore not real-time. Is there any alternative to refresh the input data rather than using Reread()? Thank you.

Hello, If you use reread you should use reread(1) else it wont have effect. and the other solution is to use tagread this also forces an update of the tag. Greetz, Jim
