Hi all, I just came across this announcement https://industrial.softing.com/de/news/nachrichten/article/datafeed-opc-suite-supports-optimized-block-access-for-siemens-controllers.html . They state there that there exists a new S7-2 protocol which allows communication with the PLC over symbolic addresses. Does anybody know something about this protocol? I was not able to find more information on this.
Furthermore, does anybody know something about addressing / reading optimized datablocks? This is something we encounter often, as users tend to use more and more optimized blocks with symbolic addressing. And currently our only option is to copy the information unoptimized or make the blocks unoptimized. What exactly is this “optimization”? Best Julian
