- Driver.AbCip.Cli-003: SubscribeCommand prints the 'Subscribed' banner BEFORE wiring OnDataChange so the main thread can't interleave its write with the poll-thread handler. - Driver.AbCip.Cli-004: AbCipCommandBase.Timeout and SubscribeCommand validate TimeoutMs / IntervalMs and throw CommandException on non-positive values. - Driver.AbCip.Cli-005: every command now calls FlushLogging() in its finally block. - Driver.AbCip.Cli-006: Timeout init throws NotSupportedException with a pointer at TimeoutMs instead of silently swallowing assignments. - Driver.AbCip.Cli-007: added AbCipCommandBaseTests covering BuildOptions shape, probe / controller-browse / alarm toggles, host address, family selection, tag list passthrough. - Driver.AbCip.Cli-008: rewrote the opening paragraph in docs/Driver.AbCip.Cli.md to credit the six-CLI roster with a pointer at docs/DriverClis.md.

otopcua-abcip-cli — AB CIP test client
Ad-hoc probe / read / write / subscribe tool for ControlLogix / CompactLogix /
Micro800 / GuardLogix PLCs, talking to the same AbCipDriver the OtOpcUa
server uses (libplctag under the hood).
Second of six driver test-client CLIs (Modbus → AB CIP → AB Legacy → S7 →
TwinCAT → FOCAS). Shares Driver.Cli.Common with the others; see
DriverClis.md for the authoritative roster.
Build + run
dotnet run --project src/Drivers/Cli/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.AbCip.Cli -- --help
Common flags

Family ↔ CIP-path cheat sheet:
- ControlLogix / CompactLogix / GuardLogix —
1,0(slot 0 of chassis) - Micro800 — empty path, just
ab://host/ - Sub-slot Logix (rare) —
1,3for slot 3
Commands
probe — is the PLC up?
# ControlLogix — read the canonical libplctag system tag
otopcua-abcip-cli probe -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t @raw_cpu_type --type DInt
# Micro800 — point at a user-supplied global
otopcua-abcip-cli probe -g ab://10.0.0.6/ -f Micro800 -t _SYSVA_CLOCK_HOUR --type DInt
read — single Logix tag
# Controller scope
otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t Motor01_Speed --type Real
# Program scope
otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t "Program:Main.Counter" --type DInt
# Array element
otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t "Recipe[3]" --type Real
# UDT member (dotted path)
otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t "Motor01.Speed" --type Real
write — single Logix tag
Same shape as read plus -v. Values parse per --type using invariant
culture. Booleans accept true/false/1/0/yes/no/on/off.
Structure (UDT) writes need the member layout declared in a real driver config
and are refused by the CLI.
otopcua-abcip-cli write -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t Motor01_Speed --type Real -v 3.14
otopcua-abcip-cli write -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t StartCommand --type Bool -v true
subscribe — watch a tag until Ctrl+C
otopcua-abcip-cli subscribe -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t Motor01_Speed --type Real -i 500
Typical workflows
- "Is the PLC reachable?" →
probe. - "Did my recipe write land?" →
write+readback. - "Why is tag X flipping?" →
subscribe. - "Is this GuardLogix safety tag writable from non-safety?" →
writeand read the status code — safety tags surfaceBadNotWritable/ CIP errors, non-safety tags surfaceGood.
