Update Criteria |
The update criteria field determines how the data will be requested. |
|
|
Select On Change or On Scan for points whose values should be polled by the Siemens TI driver at regular intervals. |
|
|
Select On Demand On Scan or On Demand On Change for points whose values should be polled by the Siemens TI driver at regular intervals while users are viewing them. |

Address |
A Siemens TI device point address consists of a one to three character alphabetic field followed by an n-digit decimal-numeric field. The numeric field reflects the offset within an addressing domain of the particular point. The alphabetic fields map to domains according to the following table: |

Enter the point address. |

Note: Since discrete inputs (X) and
discrete outputs (Y) share the same memory type, do not use the
same register number for a discrete input and a discrete output
(for example X0001 and Y0001) or unexpected results may occur.
Since word inputs (WX) and word outputs (WY) share the same memory type, do not use the same register number for a word input and a word output (for example WXOOOI and WYOOOI) or unexpected results may occur.
Normally TCC and TCP memory types share the number. For example, TCC5 and TCP5 share the same address.
