PyPLCnextRsc is a simple ,yet elegant, RSC client library. it allows you to use RSC service extremely easily.

Have a look at the gallery to get an idea of what is possible.

A simple client

The following snippet is the most simple example, it uses the IPlcManagerService to Cold Start the PLCnext

from PyPlcnextRsc import *
from PyPlcnextRsc.Arp.Plc.Domain.Services import IPlcManagerService, PlcStartKind

if __name__ == "__main__":
    with Device('192.168.1.10', secureInfoSupplier=GUISupplierExample) as device:
        plc_manager_service = IPlcManagerService(device)  # Get PlcManagerService
        plc_manager_service.Stop()
        plc_manager_service.Start(PlcStartKind.Cold)

Service Summary

There are still some other RSC interfaces this package not covered currently, or some new services just released in the latest firmware. If you need any other interface include, see the source code of services that already written in this package as template demo and refer to the interface prototype in CppSDK , then you can write interface for this package by yourself.
