The tag function is designed to store a set device data of individual programmable
controller CPUs on the network as a tag, and collect those device data in tag unit.
(1) Tag
(a)
A tag is a data table contains a set of data (components) required to access
the device data of the programmable controller CPUs on the network.
(b)
For component, set the communication path, data type, device, etc.
required to access the device data of individual programmable controller
CPUs.
(c)
The Web server module collects device data in tag unit at an interval
defined in the tag.
(d)
The tag data collected by the Web server module can be monitored from
the Web browser by specifying the tag name.
