The TDC TCP/UDP Generic module can acquire any data block with max. length of 4096 bytes.
The following module settings are module-specific:
Text encoding
You can select the type of text encoding or the code page here for a correct interpretation and display of the received text data for inputs as well as of the text data to be sent for outputs.
No. analog signals/No. digital signals
Define the number of configurable analog and digital signals in the signal tables. The default value is 32 for each. The maximum value is 1000. The signal tables are adjusted accordingly.
Signal configuration
For signal configuration, enter the address, i.e. the offset in the telegram buffer and the data type for each variable. Bear in mind that counting starts from the beginning of user data without header.
Various data types are supported for the analog signals, including texts: SINT, BYTE, INT, WORD, DINT, DWORD, FLOAT, DOUBLE, STRING[32].

The module TDC TCP/UDP Generic supports the acquisition and processing of strings as text signals. Therefore, select the data type STRING[32] in the Analog tab. To convert a text signal or to split it up into several text signals use the Text splitter module under the Virtual interface. |
