Productivity 1000 Series PLC Numbering Systems and Tag Database

We will now look at the tag numbering systems used with the Productivity controller. The Productivity Suite Software allows us to use tags in the PLC. Tags are a method for assigning and referencing memory locations within the programmable logic controller. They allow a more structured programming approach and are stored within a tag database. The tag database is stored in the memory of the Productivity Series of PLCs from Automation Direct. Do not overthink tags. Tags are just names that we assign to variables of any data type stored in the PLC memory. We will be looking at data types available in the Productivity PLC and how to use the tag database. Let’s get started. More information can be obtained at our website.
