I/O tag configuration
...
Possible value types of I/O tags: Di, Ai, Ci, TxtI, TiA.
Device ELCOR-2
Table 2 contains the list of main parameters of device.
Tables 3 to 8 contains the list of variable configuration and informative data according to parameter type. DESC(ind) parameter represents the common data of all parameters. It describes the quantity. The current value of quantity can be acquired by configuration of the I/O tag with numerical address - index ind (number from 1 and more). To find out the technical units - configure text of I/O tag with address UNIT(ind).
