ReadItemValue Method (IEasyDAClientExtension2)

Reads a typed named item from an OPC server. Only the item's typed value is returned (quality and timestamp are not returned).

Use this method if you are only interested in the actual typed value of the OPC item. Use ReadItem method if you also need the quality or timestamp. The ReadItemValue method makes it very easy to obtain the actual typed data value with just one function call.

The ReadItemValue method requires that the value quality is "good".

The server(s) can be local or can be remotely accessed via DCOM.
