Configuring Analog Points
The Simatic S7 driver supports Analog points.
Analog points can be physical points that exist on Simatic S7 PLCs, or calculated values that reside within Simatic S7 registers.
Configure the properties for each analog point using the fields on the Simatic S7 Analog Point Form.
This section covers configuration of properties on the Simatic S7 tab of the Form.
Use the Simatic S7 tab to:
- Configure the Simatic S7 Point Properties
- Configure Scaling Properties (see Scale Analog Values for use in Geo SCADA Expert in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Simple Drivers)
- Configure Significant Change Properties (see Define the Criteria for a Significant Change in Value in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Core Point Configuration).
For information on the fields on the Analog Point tab, see Defining Analog Point Details in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Core Point Configuration.
For information on the fields on the Control tab, see Define the Control Settings for an Analog Output Point in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Core Point Configuration.
