Tags
Tags are connected to index registers on the Tags tab.
In general index addressing can be formulated as:
Display value = the content in tag (the object’s address + the content in the index
register)
If the content in the index register is 2, and the address of the tag specified in the
object is 100, the value shown in the object will be collected from address 102.
If the value in the index register is changed to 3, the value i n the object will be
collected from address 103 instead.
4.10.1 IndexAddressingExample
Using index registers may be convenient when for example controlling torque and
speed of a number of connected motors from the same screen, without having to
configure and display maneuverable objects for each motor.
The following example is based upon the presumption of three motors, and the
torque and speed of each motor is held in a different tag:
Motor1 Motor2 Motor3
Torque Speed Torque Speed Torque Speed
D11 D21 D12 D22 D13 D23
