Flexy205 read 16bit Word tags from Siemens S7-300

[dxttony]

Hello,

I have followed the syntax from this document to setup tags memory location to poll data from S7-300 PLC. The connection to PLC is good and I can get most of tags with correct value.

The only problem I have is tags with type in Word (16 bit). When I connect to PLC, the value is 3221 and type is “Word” as shown in Pic 1 below.

However, when I set the syntax as DB111W144 in EWON, the value is 12833 as in Pic below.

Did I make a mistake when setting up the memory location? Appreciate your help.

Thank you,
Tony

Hello @dxttony,

You are viewing the number in hex on the plc and in decimal on the ewon.
