Example

In This Topic
    IsDeviceConnected Method (DeviceLocationService)
    In This Topic
    Returns the connection status of the selected location source.
    Syntax
    Public Function IsDeviceConnected() As Boolean
    public bool IsDeviceConnected()

    Return Value

    returns true if CurrentSource is connected; false if no connected.
    Example
    Get Current Device Location Source and Properties
    {
        // Check if a device is connected
        bool isConnected = DeviceLocationService.Instance.IsDeviceConnected();
        if (!isConnected)
            return; // no device connected
                    // Get the current device location source
        var src = DeviceLocationService.Instance.GetSource();
        // Check if the source is a SerialPortDeviceLocationSource
        //Set values for the SerialPortDeviceLocationSource
        if (src is SerialPortDeviceLocationSource serialPortSrc)
        {
            var port = serialPortSrc.ComPort;
            var antennaHeight = serialPortSrc.AntennaHeight;
            var dataBits = serialPortSrc.DataBits;
            var baudRate = serialPortSrc.BaudRate;
            var parity = serialPortSrc.Parity;
            var stopBits = serialPortSrc.StopBits;
    
            // retrieving spatial reference needs the MCT
            var sr = await QueuedTask.Run(() =>
            {
                return serialPortSrc.GetSpatialReference();
            });
    
        }
        //Get current device location properties being used.
        var dlProps = DeviceLocationService.Instance.GetProperties();
        var accuracy = dlProps.AccuracyThreshold;
    }
