Handler

secsgem.gem.handler.GemHandler inherits the functionality from secsgem.secs.handler.SecsHandler (see Handler).

It automatically handles the whole setup and teardown of the link. Incoming collection events and terminal messages are automatically accepted and propagated by events. The setup of collection event reports is also simplified. It has functionality to send remote commands and handling process programs.

The handler also implements a maintains a communication state, which is defined in the standard.

>>> def on_communicating(event, data):
...     print "Communicating"
...
>>> client = secsgem.GemHandler("10.211.55.33", 5000, False, 0, "test", event_handler=secsgem.EventHandler(events={'handler_communicating': on_communicating}))
>>>
>>> client.enable()
Communicating
>>> client.get_process_program_list()
['test1', 'test2']
>>> client.request_process_program('test1')
This is process program test1
>>> client.disable()

Also streams/functions can be sent and received with the handler:

>>> f = secsgem.SecsS01F01()
>>> client.send_and_waitfor_response(f)
secsgem.hsms.packets.HsmsPacket({'header': secsgem.hsms.packets.HsmsHeader({'function': 2, 'stream': 1, 'pType': 0, 'system': 14, 'sessionID': 0, 'requireResponse': False, 'sType': 0}), 'data': '\x01\x02A\x06EQUIPMA\x06SV n/a'})

Events

GemHandler defines a few new events, that can be received with the help of secsgem.common.EventHandler:

Event name Description
handler_communicating Connection is setup
collection_event_received Collection event was received
terminal_received Terminal message was received
