The local values of these two object groups can be monitored for changes and the changes
transferred to the master. A change to a local value can be caused by, for example, manual
operator input on site.
To allow the value resulting from local events or interventions to be transferred to the master,
the data point in question requires a channel for mirroring back. You configure this mirroring
back function using the "Value monitoring" option in data point configuration, "General" tab.
Remember that to use the mirror back function, you need to interconnect the local values in
the controller with the relevant PLC tag of the data point.
Time stamps are transferred in UTC format (48 bits) and contain milliseconds.
Data point types of the "IEC" protocol
The "Direction" column shows the transmission direction:
● "in / input": Monitoring direction
● "out / output": Control direction
