I use KepServerEX 6.5. I can not read value of device property. Device has property value stored in series of registers and this value must be appear as "string". I can't find appropriate format for display it in Kepware Property Editor. When i use formats "word" or "string" I can not see value of the property. How can I resolve this problem?

Please take a look in the help document for that driver under the 'String Access to Registers' section on page 58 of the PDF here:

An example of a tag address you could use would be as follows:

 

R100-R200 M H

In order to properly answer this question. we would need to know more about what driver you are using within KEPServerEx, and the type of device you are trying to read from.

 

Each communication protocol is different, and depending on the type of device you are requesting the data from the driver may or may not be able to concatenate multiple registers into a single readable string data type.
