KepserverEX to Ignition mismatch

I have a value in Float that I'm reading from Kep server below picture


and I configured a tag in ignition with the address provided at OPC UA client , (Below Picture)

however rhar number I'm reading in Ignition is 901.00 (See below picture)

How should I convert data types toegt correct value

Preface the address with HRF (drop the R from your current address). ie, HRF10020

edit: whoops, thought you were comparing kepware modbus connection to ignition modbus connection.

You aren't looking at the same address.

R10020 vs R00120.

He's using Kepware, not our Modbus driver, so not relevant.

edit: sorry @ryan.white, looks like I misread that because of the Kepware screenshot. He might be trying to switch from using Kepware to using the Ignition Modbus driver?

No, look at the second screenshot. He appears to be using Kepware with something else, and is trying to switch to a native IA driver. I'd guess that word swapping needs to be changed.

Could still be the same wrong address problem.

Given that R00120 isn't a valid Modbus address for the Ignition driver I can only assume the address map is being used... which is discouraged @matt.taheri.ca

I have kep server installed and OPC UA client would show Kep server tags data,
I have changed the address to [HS1]R00120 and the data is changed to -13,107.00


My PLC device is mitsubishi Q series ,

Tip: it's "Kepserver" or "KepserverEx" (not "Kep server"). It may help others find this thread if you fix your question title.

Thanks for the tip

Any suggestion as to what other addresses I cn use ?

Do this:

If you're using the Mitsubishi driver, you'll want to follow the manual here:

I've never used a Mitsubishi device, but it looks like there are modifiers to specify the data type and also byte ordering. It's possible it needs some form of modification to get it to work properly.
