function [ sensor ] = readDATA( socket ) % readDATA Reads UDP Socket and interprets data % Version 0.25 % % Inputs % location: Either an opened UDP Socket or integer port number % % Outputs % If data is X-Plane data format: % data: Matlab X-Plane DATA Structure % .h: Header array containing header numbers corresponding to values in the X-Plane UDP Data screen. % .d: 2-D Data array. Each row contains eight values corresponding to the header value (.h(1) corresponds to .d(1,:)) % .raw: raw UDP data array received by readUDP % % If data is matlab structure: % data: Matlab Structure. raw UDP data saved to data.raw % % If data is any other format: % data: Matlab Structure containing one field % .raw & .d: raw UDP data array received by readUDP % % Use % 1. import XPlaneConnect.*; % 2. socket = openUDP(49005); % 3. data = readDATA(socket); % 4. status = closeUDP(socket); % or % 1. import XPlaneConnect.*; % 2. data = readDATA(49005); % % NOTE: sending in a port number instead of an opened socket clears the UDP buffer. This only works if the data is being sent at a fast rate. Sending in a UDP Socket reads the first packet in the buffer. % % Change Log % 10/02/14: [CT] V0.25: Updated to work with updated xpcPlugin % 04/18/14: [CT] V0.2: Updated to work with new Plugin % 09/10/13: [CT] Updated to receive UDP socket or port number % 06/10/13: [CT] Code created % % Contributors % [CT] Christopher Teubert (SGT, Inc.) % christopher.a.teubert@nasa.gov % % To Do % 1.
