WCF Remote Control Service Contract

RemoteControlService allows to remote control Osterwalder Powder Press Cells.

It is based on Microsoft Windows Communication Foundation.

The contract version to be used depends on the server version of the Osterwalder Press Cell software version.

Requirements

RCS requires a license to be enabled on the press cell to accept connections.

Install Required Packages

The following packages are required to establish a connection:

• Osterwalder.RemoteControlService.Wcf
• System.ServiceModel.NetTcp

Prepare event handler

You need to provide an implementation of IRemoteControlServiceEvents which handles the event notifications from the remote control service.

Establish a connection

var callback = new RemoteControlServiceEventHandler(); var channelFactory = new DuplexChannelFactory<IRemoteControlService>( new InstanceContext(callback), new NetTcpBinding(SecurityMode.None), new EndpointAddress("net.tcp://hostname:8001/RemoteControlService")); var channel = channelFactory.CreateChannel();
