Full Version: Tag Acquisition Rates

I have a couple of questions about tag acquisition with a Flexy and Data Mailbox.

  1. I see that tags can be arranged in different groups. Can groups have different acquisition / DM upload rates? For instance can we have one group of tags that sends data to Data Mailbox every 10 seconds while another group only sends data every 5 minutes?
  2. Can data acquisition or rate be conditional? Can we have the Flexy monitor the status of a Boolean PLC tag and have it either disable or slow down data acquisition to Data Mailbox when the tag is False?

Thanks,
Max
Hi,

1. No you can only define one upload interval of all the data. However remember that the data pushed are the historical data of each tags. So it is easy for you set different recording frequency for each of your tags.
Btw, the minimum DMBox upload or synchro frequency is 1 min. But Tags can be recorded every 10 seconds.

2. Again you should rather act on the recording frequency of your tags and keep the same DMBox synchro time. There is ready-to-use script for that on https://tools.ewonsupport.biz/BASIC_Repo...ing%20Rate

Hi Simon,

Thanks for the response. I think this should work.
