How to read an array data of bool

[BrainBranchetti99]

Hi, I have in my PLC a 100 bool data array and I need to read this array with rapidscada.

I found the method to create the variable of type array but the problem is in assigning the channel to the array as for the moment the only method is to associate a channel for each bool which becomes very complicated and laborious.

At this time I had been thinking about using 10 100 bool arrays for each array. Wouldn’t it be possible to go and assign a range of channels to each array only once?

I hope I was clear in the explanation.

Most PLCs allow you to read data in the form of Int16, and only then remove the required registers in Scada.

Sorry I didn’t understand, my problem is to assign a channel to each location array without having to do it manually

Hi,
What communication protocol do you use to communicate between the PLC and PC?

Hi,

Array variables for OPC UA will be supported in Rapid SCADA 6. Current version is Rapid SCADA 5. Beta version of Rapid SCADA 6 will be available soon.
