Important Properties of Internal Tag in Wincc

Image
Below is the important properties of Tags in Wincc.  1. Linear Scaling: Basically when you want to scale values from PLC in Wincc then we use. eg: value from PLC is 0 to 1000 and we have to show 0 to 100 in wincc. 2. Limit Values: If we want to limit the display of values.  We can use substitute values if requires to display when it reaches at limit. Main important properties to note: a. Substitute value on connection error: We can use it show for connection error. Sometime for the      user becomes difficult to understand that it is communication error or parameter error. b. Runtime persistence: It can be used to save last value of internal tag before shutdown of wincc projects. c. Synchronization: It is required when we are using server redundancy and project has internal tags use. If it is not selected than both redundant server may show different values even they are synchronized.
