Variable tags Real

Hello,

I have an issue with real variable tags in CirectSCADA 7.40 SP2.  A real variable is declared in the PLC at address DDT1220, I create the same name variable tag, pointing to DT1220 (CitectSCADA does not accept the format DDT...) and select the type as Real, and each time it compiles, it returns the error "Bad raw data type" on that variable.  If I set the type as Long, it compiles without any error, what am I missing?

Thanks.

  • Our PLC is a Panasonic FP2SH 60k. It supports real data types. What I did for now is convert the real to int, multiplying by 100 before and reconverting to real in SCADA and divide it by 100, this way I have sort of a real number with two decimals.
    OPC sounds interesting, it will depends how much development adjustment would be required, I'll check it out.
    Thanks for the information!
