Viewing an Antenna's Current Configuration

You can configure Diagnostic Points for each antenna in your CIMPLICITY project to display an antenna's current configuration values.

Diagnostic Points are configured the same as any other device point, except that a special address value is used, and the Diagnostic Data checkbox is selected. The four special addresses you will use to create these Diagnostic Points are:

Configuration Value

Point Address

Point Type

$TAG_TYPE

USINT

Object Detect Mode

$OBJECT_DETECT_MODE

USINT

Object Detect Timeout

$OBJECT_DETECT_TIMEOUT
