Create Equipment Type Instances with items Address configured

Hello

We are using Citect SCADA 2018.

WE need to create Equipment Types using the editor, but i don't know how to configure the item address

The IODevices driver that we use is MODNET.

Should be possible in configuration define a start address of instance and the item offset? the picture bellow is an example that we use to configure a equipment without type.

Thank you

Hi

You can do this by adding calculators to your equipment template. They need to be added manually directly in the XML file like this:

<calculator name="MyCalc1">{equipment.param_list[Param1]} + 1</calculator>
<calculator name="MyCalc2">{equipment.param_list[Param1]} + 2</calculator>

Have a look at them in the help file as well:

System Model > Equipment > Configure Equipment in Citect Studio > Calculator Examples

Good Luck!

Thank you for your answer

I tested your suggestion and works.

However, during the Variables, o saw that the update equipment creates the variables order by item. Sould be order by Address in IOdevice.
