I am trying to map an address from a S7-300 to an opc tag this is what I have from the PLC programmer DB18.DBW6. Can someone please help me create the correct addressing in OPC tag.

This help file covers it well.

I have gone through this several times, but its not helpful in this case. I still don’t understand how to map DB18.DBW6. Probably I am ignorant :smiley:

  1. You need to tell us the data type you expect in that word for specific help, and
  2. Your programmer needs to follow the rules for configuring the PLC as described in "Considerations for 1200 and 1500 Devices" in the linked manual page. If that isn't done, no mapping will work at all.

If this is an integer value, the address is [device]DB18,I6 for an unsigned word use [device]DB18,W6.
