In Geo SCADA Expert, you use an Analog Point database item to represent a sensor or measuring instrument that is connected to a SCADAPack 50 device and reports data that can be in a range of values. For example, the measurements of a liquid level in a tank.
You configure the properties for each Geo SCADA Expert Analog Point database item by using the fields on the SCADAPack 50 Analog Point Form.
Each Form has a number of tabs. This section describes how you configure the properties on:
- The Analog Point tab
- The Device Point tab.
The properties on the other tabs are common to many drivers (see Tabs on Point Forms in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Advanced Drivers).
Use the Analog Point tab to:
- Configure Common Point Properties
- Configure Alarm Limits
- Configure Point Scaling
- Configure the Point Formatting (see Define the Appearance of an Analog Point's Values in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Core Point Configuration)
- Configure the Override Properties (see Define whether an Analog Point can be Overridden in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Core Point Configuration)
- Configure the No Change Properties (see Detect whether an Analog Point has Stopped Changing in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Core Point Configuration)
- Configure the Trend Properties (see Define an Analog Point's Trend Settings in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Core Point Configuration).
Use the Device Point tab to Configure SCADAPack 50 Device Point Properties.
