Gateway direct output values
It is possible to write values directly from the logic editor into a gateway. In the default
process image, four bytes are reserved for these gateway direct output values which can
be found in the logic editor in the
Outputs
file card.
In order to use gateway direct output values, a CPU with firmware V2.00.0 or higher is
required.
If required, you can configure any byte as gateway direct output value. In order to do this,
you need to assign tag names for the bits you want to use.
How to define additional gateway direct output values:
Click on a free byte in the
Gateway data set to network
area to select it.
Activate the
Use direct editing
checkbox in the upper left corner of the
Tag names
area. You will now be able to edit the tag names for this byte.
If desired, enter a tag name for the selected byte.
Enter tag names for the individual bits of the selected byte that you want to use as
gateway direct output values.
