• The Data Type/Offset/Length combination may be incorrectly set up
o In the FieldServer configuration, the Offset Parameter refers to the buffer offset in
bytes (starting at 0), regardless of data type.
o The Length parameter always refers to length in items, which means Float data
will be the number of float values, Word data will be the number of words, etc.
