Parameters

machineName

Name of the machine. Determines the computer on which the OPC server is located. May be an empty string, in which case the OPC server is assumed to exist on the local computer or at the computer specified for it by DCOM configuration.

serverClass

Contains ProgID of the OPC server.

notificationRate

The requested notification rate. The notification rate is in milliseconds and tells the server how often to send event notifications. This is a minimum time - do not send event notifications any faster that this UNLESS the buffer size is reached. A value of 0 for notification rate means that the server should send event notifications as soon as it gets them. This parameter is used to improve communications efficiency between client and server. This parameter is a recommendation from the client, and the server is allowed to ignore the parameter.

filter

An OpcLabs.EasyOpc.AlarmsAndEvents.AESubscriptionFilter that determines the filtering criteria to be used for the event subscription.

returnedAttributesByCategory

Determines the attributes to be returned for each category with event notifications. A dictionary where they key is the category ID, and the value is an array of attribute IDs for that event category.

active

Creates activated or deactivated subscription. See ChangeEventSubscription for more information.

refreshWhenActive

When set, the subscription will automatically perform a Refresh after each successful connection to the server (either the initial connection, or any automatic reconnection after the connection is lost).

state

The state object (can be any value supplied by your code); available in event notifications.
