Usage Examples

You can update output state in three steps;

• Create the ADAM object

• Create/reuse DigitalOutput

• Make the request

Create adam object

IP, username, password of ADAM should be already set from APEX

from adam_io import Adam6050D

ip='192.168.1.1'
username = 'user'
password = 'pass'

adam = Adam6050D(ip, username, password)

Construct the digital output object

To change the state of the outputs, you should create/reuse a DigitalOutput object After creating the object, the initial state is empty, so making a request straight away changes nothing.

from adam_io import DigitalOutput

do = DigitalOutput()
# set every available output to 1
do[0]=1
do[1]=1
do[2]=1
do[3]=1
do[4]=1
do[5]=1

You don’t have to set every bit, you can just change the ones you need.

from adam_io import DigitalOutput

do = DigitalOutput()
# set DO0 to 1 and DO5 to 0
do[0]=1
do[5]=0

DigitalOutput accepts an array to set the outputs all at once

from adam_io import DigitalOutput

# set every available output to 1
initial_array = [1,1,1,1,1,1,1]
do = DigitalOutput(array=initial_array)

Change the state

After creating adam and setting the digital outputs, make the request by calling the output method of ADAM and pass the digitalOuput object as argument.

from adam_io import Adam6050D, DigitalOutput

ip='192.168.1.1'
username = 'user'
password = 'pass'

adam = Adam6050D(ip, username, password)

do = DigitalOutput()
# set DO0 to 1 and DO5 to 0
do[0]=1
do[5]=0

# request the state change
try:
    adam.output(do)
except Exception as err:
    print(err)

Read the state of output

You can get the current state by calling the digitalOutput object without an argument

current_output = adam.output()

# state of DO0
current_output[0]

Read the state of input

To read the input state, call input() on ADAM. You can pass in the id of a specific input if you want. Otherwise every input value is retrieved

input_id = 0
di_0 = adam.input(input_id)

# value of DI0
print(di_0)

di = adam.input(input_id)

# digital inputs
print(di[0]) # DI0
print(di[1]) # DI1
#
#
#
print(di[10]) # DI10
print(di[11]) # DI11
