Importing tag blocks

It is a very similar possibility of importing *.BLS files. The user can import whole data blocks , but the structure of the imported file is different. Please see below:

StationID;TimeScan;Timeout;TimeScanFast;TimeoutFast;Address;DataType
;BlockLength
96;5000;50000;5000;50000;200;10;8
96;5000;50000;5000;50000;216;10;3
96;5000;50000;5000;50000;220;10;1

The following parameters should be set:

• StationID – numerical value corresponding to the station

• TimeScan – frequency of NORMAL scanning, TimeScan in Group setting

• TimeOut – maximal time, which can elapse between two consecutive data refreshments without changing the quality (this parameter is in force if the scan mode is NORMAL), TimeOut in Group settiong

• TimeScanFast – frequency of FAST scanning, TimeScanFast in Group settings

• TimeOutFast – maximal time, which can elapse between two consecutive data refreshments without changing the quality (this parameter is in force if the scan mode is FAST), TimeOutFast in Group setting

• Address – address in Data block setting

• DataType – this parameter indicates the data type conversion of the Tag, which is done by the server. This parameter is a number from 0 to 15 and 255:

  • SBYTE = 0

  • BYTE = 1

  • SHORT = 2

  • USHORT = 3

  • INT = 4

  • UINT = 5

  • LONG = 6

  • ULONG = 7

  • FLOAT = 8

  • DOUBLE = 9

  • DECIMAL = 10

  • BOOLEAN = 11

  • DATETIME = 12

  • DURATION = 13

  • STRING = 14

  • ANY_TYPE = 15

  • NONE = 255

• BlockLength – length of the block of data
