Direct tags import from Omron PLCs (OMRON Fins)¶
This driver supports the direct tags import from an external source. To import a device configuration file (tags list) from the Project Explorer window, right click on the driver name under Real Time DB - List Comm Driver and select “Import Device Database”.
The requirement for the configuration file is a valid text file (i.e. .txt or .csv), that can be easily created copying a symbol table from the CX-Programmer application. The format obtained from the exporting is the following:
Symbol <tab> Type <tab> Address <tab> [Position] <tab> [Use] <tab> [Comment]
where the “Symbol” field is related to the variable name, the “Type” field is related to variable data type, the “Address” field is related to the address of the variable on the device. Other fields are ignored by the driver.
