The client must access the data using the array element tags that were generated.
Notes:
1. Variables with the STEP 7 data types of DATE, DATE_AND_TIME, STRING, TIME, and TIME_OF_DAY
generate tags with the string data type (for which arrays are not supported).
2. During automatic tag generation for arrays of complex types (such as structures, user-defined types,
function blocks, or system function blocks), this warning message only occurs for tags of the first
element of the complex type array.
Unable to generate tag(s) on device <device> for <tag group>. Created tag
<tag name> with address <tag address> due to internal block size.
Error Type:
Warning
Possible Cause:
While parsing the data blocks of the STEP 7 project for automatic tag generation, an array variable was
encountered that exceeds the internal block size. Although all individual array element tags generate as
expected, the array tag itself is generated with a dimension that allows it to fit within the block size.
Solution:
To use array tags and not the individual array element tags, determine the address where the array tag leaves
off. Then, manually generate another tag to address the remainder of the array.
Notes:
1. For example, if data block 1 begins with an array of 64 REAL, there would be 64 array element tags with
addresses DB1,REAL0; DB1,REAL4;... DB1, REAL248; DB1,REAL252. Because the size of the array
exceeds the internal block size of 218, the array tag would only be created with 54 dimensions
("DB1,REAL0[54]"). The array tag does not provide the client with the data for the last 10 elements. If the
client wants to use array tags and not the individual array element tags, another tag with the address
"DB1,REAL216[10]" must be manually created.
2. During automatic tag generation for arrays of complex types (such as structures, user-defined types,
function blocks, or system function blocks), this warning message only occurs for tags of the first
element of the complex type array.
Windows code page warning for device <channel.device>: A required code
page (<nnnn>) is unavailable on this machine. Tag generation may fail or tag
names and descriptions may not appear as expected.
Error Type:
Warning
Possible Cause:
The computer is not configured with support for the specified Windows code page.
Solution:
1. Install any language packs that are necessary for displaying the Windows code page character set.
2. Move to a computer that supports the Windows code page.
