Two application running on the same machine that read a variable from the same plc concurrently about ads HOT 8 CLOSED

Yes, on Windows or TC/BSD you can build with -Dtcadsdll_include=c:\TwinCAT\AdsApi\TcAdsDll\Include -Dtcadsdll_lib=c:\TwinCAT\AdsApi\TcAdsDll\x64\lib, which will then use the TwinCAT Router.

Take a look into our internal CI scripts:
TC/BSD:
https://github.com/Beckhoff/ADS/blob/master/.gitlab-ci.yml#L68-L74

Windows (Is essentially the same but looks so complicated because of our CI setup):

This is a limitation of TwinCAT on the PLC side. TwinCAT doesn't support multiple ADS connections from the same IP. So you have to either use multiple IPs on your client running the applications or you have to use another protocol such as MQTT https://infosys.beckhoff.com/english.php?content=../content/1033/tc3_ads_over_mqtt/index.html&id=

Thank you for your answer. But I don't understand why if I use two instances of the .NET application I don't encounter this problem. It only happens to me if either application uses https://github.com/Beckhoff/ADS. Could it be because the .NET version has a real Ads Router implemented?

Because the .NET application is "cheating" and implements an ADS router ;-)

Is there any way to use an ADS router in C++? Do I have to compile https://github.com/Beckhoff/ADS with the define USE_TWINCAT_ROUTER set and have TwinCAT installed on the machine?

Try this https://github.com/fengyc/ads-proxy , I don't think it is an elegant solution but it works

Hello,

Is it possible to have the ads router in linux ? I'm trying to have the same machine to access different tasks running in the PLC the first process on the linux machine gets disconnected when the second process connect. I'm using PyAds on a ubuntu machine.

My problem is the same as the one describe here : stlehmann/pyads#331

Thanks in advance for you help,
Bertrand

Did you try the suggestion from stlehmann/pyads#331 ?
