An easy, fast and awesome way of scaling your variables when using Siemens HMI's!

It might be easier, but i think this is lazy programming. I rather handle things like this in the plc. Then i'm not limited to the limitations of a hmi/scada. Also a good program has flexible functions for input reading / ouput writing with manual overide and everyhing and scaling build in, so there for this example there would not realy be a need to do scaling on the hmi. Good explanation nevertheless. In last 8 years i have never used this scaling though i knew it exists.

[@genantamtam9364]

correct me if im wrong but, 32767 is 23 mA which is overflow so its not 100% but its over. The 100% should be 27648 which is 20 mA, or maximum for analog inputs?

[@hegamurl7434]

Won't correct you, because you are already correct!

[@genantamtam9364]

@@hegamurl7434 so in that case you should make linear scaling to 27648 instead of 32767? because 32767 is wrong, its more than 20mA.? Didnt get it.

[@chrismoje4321]

Interesting topic, can you do tutorial on Data Logging? How can I delete and manage data logs on the MMC card? Thanks

[@chuchuokeke]

hmmm does this work in all the TIA versions? It's great there's a simpler method that may or may not reduce the PLC's memory overhead? I think the scale x and norm x is very good for beginners. Let them suffer😈 only when there's an easier way😇

[@hegamurl7434]

Good question with the versions, will test it out later... my PC at home only has V15.1 installed

[@FighterHayabusa]

@@hegamurl7434 Yes it does. I've been using every version since V11. There are few reasons I don't generally do this though. Mainly because it's hard-coded into the HMI, and if you need to adjust scaling in runtime you can't.

[@dennisshatov9836]

But if plc loses connectivity with the HMI then the scaling is lost?

[@karoliczanwojtylanu]

Hi! It would be great if you made some videos about servomotor control! Best regards!

[@paull5938]

118,515% = 32767 100% = 27648 Oder verstehe ich da was falsch?

[@hegamurl7434]

Correct! If you want to put this on an analog output. But always also depends on the hardware setup, that's why I left it more general

Hello, great videos, I use Siemens a lot and you explain things very well! Have you done any videos on graphs? And logging of graphs due to certain trigger events perhaps 🤔.

[@kaakos9273]

nice one i didnt know that i can scale from HMI thanks dude . would you please make video about Asi interface and Asi-Profinet gateway please please please :(

Thanks for all the videos. You're helping me a lot with my university final project. I'm from Spain and I am studyng Industrial Engineering Master.

Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) is a guideline that is obligatory for all the pharmaceutical companies. It compires of software also. Therefore, there are some tools developed by siemens for this sector. All the PLC programmers who programme for pharma should know what is going on

[@bstenberg0158]

Have you made a video where you are programming safety function in a F plc?

[@thaddaeuspark1270]

I'd to change Modbus TCP Data scaling, and done it much easier than move data to My PLC and regain Data ! Thanks from Korea !

[@johanneskampfl6794]

Hi, basically it is a good feature but one big Problem with this is the readability. When u have an error that u somehow have to trace back than there it is always better when u know where all the programming comes from. In this case there is some script running in the background which u cant controll or watch. Just my opinion. I think the advantage of using PLCs like Siemens -for maintenance- are the error tracing options because of its readability of the used programming.

[@KamalHasani-kh5vm]

Hello my friend please say how to connect real number to a slider!because in tia hmi just INT format is allowed. Thanks

[@dayne403]

Great video nice trick I've got a question not exactly related to this but is there a way to make a variable graph for example if you enter a value say 50 the maximum on the graph will be 50 but if you change to it 100 then the maximum will go to 100

[@hegamurl7434]

Of course there is! In the "Properties" of the slider you can set a "Tag for maximum" and "Tag for minimum"... just put a variable there and your slider automatically adjust to that value which you can then use in your program

[@Blades-fm6ck]

I'm sure this method works, but it's transferring some of the code into the HMI.

[@MisShooter]

Great video again! Most Scada systems, like Cimplicity have the same option. Works great!

[@arsalanchanna6676]

End value should be 27648 I think

Hey Hegamurl, Do you have a workaround for basic panels? They do not have Sliders.

[@nikolastanic5274]

Hey, nice videos , very usefull ! Maybe any video how physical connect PLC-HMI-SCADA ? Thanks !

[@dennislaroche2169]

Hi, i enjoy your videos and am fairly new to setting up plc programs. I understand how the scaling works in the video, however i do not understand how to put my word output into my logic where it is directly scaled from the hmi. Sorry if you have already answered this somewhere else. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
