<div class="markdown_content"><p>Put every question in a separate message, as this is a lot easier to read.</p> <p>An analog input is always a WORD and runs from +7 to ... something like 32760<br/> you can make this engineering values by mapping the variable to an engineering value.</p> <p>for example 1 to 5 BAR.<br/> Now you can use this to compare, or make a PID controller or whatever you like.</p> <p>An output is same and works from 7 to 32760 for example, the lowest 3 bits are for status. It is dependent of the PLC and card used.</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>I got as a training some assignment to work with analogue input outputs in codeSys. I have some question to ask here and hopefully someone can give a hint <br/> Inputs of type WORD. What can I use them for? What can I store in those types?<br/> How do I work with analogue signals? I usually work with BOOLs. But if you have a output slot 0-10 v. How do you decide how much to send out? What analogue signals are used for?</p> <p>This is a Codesys forum but I would anyway ask you something about Warp Engineering Studio. When you make an Object of a HMI och drag it to the workspace . you name the object from "ix developer project" to something else. When generating it 1: does not created a project with that name. 2: gives the error about "this channel can not be used. set "SessionInputShutdown to false" ... ". Do you have the PLC and hmi online when generating projects for these components?</p> <p>Thanks in advance</p></div>
