I am trying to detect a switch transition, if the operator changes the switch position; I need to pop up a box to say this is a slow link.
I created a function where this works when everything is local, but when I link the switch to the server which is a Modbus object on a very slow link, I cannot read back the instantaneous position of the switch.
Am I missing a simpler way?

Here is a simplified example. I have a switch that starts a motor via an RTU over a slow radio link.
Created switch on client with remote source (server data member Modbus control object)
I drag a logical signal from this (server) data member back into my client.
This logical signal will not go true until the server gets a response back from the RTU that it has received the command.
