Technology data block
7.2.1
Introduction
The properties of real objects are configured by means of the technology objects and saved
in a technology data block. The technology data block contains all configuration data,
setpoint and actual values, and status information of the technology object. The TIA Portal
automatically creates the technology data block when the technology object is created. You
access the data of the technology data block with your user program.
A listing and description of the tags can be found in the Appendix (Page 332).
