Alarm handling via OPC

Oct 19, 2006 1 Replies

Hello,



I'm a PC programmer and I have no knowledge about PLC programming!



I have a project where I will use SIMATIC NET PB SOFTNET-DP (Siemens) to communicate via PROFIBUS-DP with a Siemens S7 200 PLC. I'm master.



I understand how to read and write data.



What I don't know is how alarms are handled.



So if someone would please explain this like they would for a 4 year old, I will be forever grateful!
