I am using Omron CP1H PLC communicate with Citect SCADA v6.0. I define data type for one of the variable tag to read "REAL". But when do compilation, it will come out a error saying "bad raw data type". There are fine for define other type of data type.

Any help for that will be appreciate. Thx.

 

..\Citect\CitectSCADA\Bin\PROTDIR.DBF only shows up 2 Omron related drivers OMFINS.DBF or OMRON.DBF

OMFINS: only supports Type0.digital and type1.INT (16bit)
OMRON: only supports Type0.digital and type1.INT (16bit) (but does support LONG/STRING/LONGBCD


It does not look like 32bit data types are supported through the omron specific drivers. Can this PLC use Modbus/Modnet instead

Suggest, i) convert to string in PLC, or INT

Refer knwledge base Q3067
