Live UNITS data link

I can't seem to get the right combination of configuration options to get a units field to show. I want to show just a datalink with AI1/OUT_SCALE.UNITS.  Most i can get is the number value associated with it. But, not the string. I don't want the PV value. I'm just trying to show the units.

  • Hi TreyB,

    Try this: DLSYS["MODULE/FUNCTIONBLOCK/OUT_SCALE.UNITS.STR"]. Set the Datalink to Type string.

    Since the units are a Named Set, the datalink is resolving to the enumeration of that particular unit. The suffix .STR will convert it to its string value.
