Where :
- <IP Address>: IP address of the slave device in the Siemens network
- <Rack>: Rack of the device
- <Slot>: Slot of the device
Points Configuration
Address
The syntax for the Siemens communication points is: <Type>:<Format><Address>.< Bit or String Length >
For DataBlock type: DB<DB Group>:<Format><Address>.<Bit or String Length>
Where:
- <Type> is the register type. Valid values are:
- M=Flags
- T=Timers
- C=Counters
- I=Inputs
- Q=Outputs
- DB=Data Blocks.
- <DB Group> is the group number of the configured Data Block type.
- <Address> is the device address.
- <Format> is the format to treat the value from or to the device. Valid values are:
- B=Byte
- W=Word
- DW=Dword
- F=Float
- ST=String
- <Bit or String Length> is the bit number. This parameter is optional. If you use the String type, it represents the String length.
