Cannot Use DT Data Type for Date and Time values

Cannot Use DT Data Type for Date and Time values

Hello. We're switching our OPC Explorer application Matrikon to KepserverEx on our S7-1500 Siemens PLC. We're facing a difficulty on Date and Time tags. In Matrikon, we're using a Date and Time tag for power-off time of a machine. When we trying to use as it is on KepserverEX, there is two data types : Date and DT. Date is Read / Write tag but we have to write a value like "2024-10-10-08:23:52" and we can't. We can only write "2024-10-10" to that tag.

 

Other option is DT but DT is read-only tag so we can't use it. And DT data type is the data type we want. It's like 2024-10-10T08:23:52" but we can't write to it. We receiving a error message on SAP MII Workbench : "The item's access rights do not allow the operation. Operation was unsuccessful"

 

My question, is there any way to use DT as read/write ? Or there is any other data type other than string ?

 

You can see the tag in Siemens Tia Portal and it's format and the tag in KepserverEX.

 

Thanks
