4.6 Setting the Multi-state value data format

The OPC data item provided by MK8000 (multi-state item) can assume two alternative

structures:

 Threshold mode: The item value will be a number represented in 2 bytes; the

possible states will correspond to specific values.

 Bit-mask mode: A 4-byte value will map the possible states on 32 bits, with each bit

corresponding to an elementary state.

As shown in the following figure, the MK8000 OPC server node includes in the Node

tab the option for setting one of the multi-state modes. For more information on OPC

data formats, see the document

004971 MK8000 OPC Server Interface Specifications

Note: the field MK8000 and MM8000 selection can only be used in an MM8000

system, which can switch the project type (refer to

MM8000 ICC

manual –

A6V10062413).
