Type: DataType of the tag allows you to select under which format the eWON will store and
display the variable of the tag (Floating Point, Boolean, Integer, Dword or Automatic). All tags are
stored on 4 bytes. The default Automatic option lets the eWON decide the format depending on
the IO Server register/modifier type.
The remaining fields are usually left with their default value:
1.
Force Read Only: Unchecked is the default. When it is checked, users will
not be able to write a value by using the Update command in the View IO page.
However, the tag remains read/write for commands written in the embedded
BASIC program.
eWON value: Defaults are *1+0. Applies a scale factor and an offset to the
raw value coming from the IO server. The scale factor and offset are float
values. Negative values are accepted.
TAGval = IOSERVERval * scale factor + offset.
