DAServer Device-Specific System Items 
The following system items refer to specific information regarding the device(s) the 
DAServer is connected to. 
System Item 
Name 
Type/ 
Access 
Rights 
Description  Values 
$SYS$Status  Boolean/ 
Read 
Binary status indication of the 
connection state to the device 
(hierarchy level) the item is 
attached to. 
The device group (OPC access 
path/topic) does not affect the 
value. The status can be good 
even if individual items have 
errors. 
For DDE/SuiteLink clients, 
$SYS$Status always comes 
from the leaf level of a DAServer 
hierarchy branch, which is the 
destination PLC node. 
For OPC clients, $SYS$Status 
can be accessed at all hierarchy 
levels. $SYS$Status at the root 
level of the whole hierarchy tree 
is always good, as it represents 
the quality status of the local 
computer itself. Hence, for 
RANGE: 0, 1 
1: DAServer 
connection to the 
device is intact. 
0: Error 
communicating 
with the device.
