Find dp with dp id in para

Post by sblancha »

Hello,

Some error in the PVSS log report dp id (and dp type id) but how to get the dp name from dp id? is there a tool in para?

I get the below error:
Unexpected state, DP: (Type: 488 Sys: 2 Dp: 2842109 El: 2 : _address..), MAN: (SYS: 2 Driver -num 3 CONN: 1), Conversion failed in Transformation::toVar for PLC_MOB_S7.DB501.DBB49, [len = 1, itemSize = 4, subindex = 0, type = 708]

in para "dp filter" I tried:
2842109
or
id=2842109

without success.

Thanks,
Sebastien

Hello,

have a look at following FAQ in the ETM-Portal:
https://portal.etm.at/index.php?option= ... &Itemid=54

or at the WinCC OA help: Special functions / Identification caching & DP Identification / DP Identification

Thanks, works fine (even if there is a typo in the FAQ missing 'l' in tool)
Cheers,

If you prefer to use the para you could 'ask' to driver which datapoint elements have the address reference.
By setting the '_Driver3.AD.HWMask' to 'PLC_MOB_S7.DB501.DBB49' and check the result in '_Driver3.AD.DPMatch'.
