The role of analog input tags is to represent incoming analog data values from equipment processes, and provide drawing methods to display the data in numeric or graphic form as a bar, gauge, or number.
Note: Analogs can have text values if the driver returns a text value. For this to happen, the Unscaled Min and Unscaled Max values within the Scaling tab must be set equal.
The analog input has the following characteristics:
