Hello,
I would like to carry out a project on WagoCloud, and in order to determine its feasibility I have two questions.
Situation:
I have a PLC program running on a Siemens 1500 in which I have activated the OPC UA server. Through this server, I retrieve the variables that I want to transfer to the cloud via a 750-8217.
I have successfully created different collections on the cloud and I have been able to build various dashboards.
Using the WORD format
In my Siemens program, I use WORD variables to store fault information. Each bit of the WORD is set to 1 when the corresponding fault is active, independently of the others (example image).
The issue is that I haven’t found a way to read the individual bits of the WORD. Do you have a solution to extract this information without having to import each fault one by one through an upload of collections of Booleans?
Creating internal dashboard variables
In the dashboard options, it is possible to create internal variables that can be used to control rows. I would like to create these variables and assign them values from variables imported from the PLC. What is the correct procedure to create them?
For exemple here I would like to put T1_etat in an internal variable.
alarme(device) → collectun(collection) → T1_etat(Variable)
Thank you
Malo
