Note

HA-CS31 visualization can be used only for monitoring purpose. Users can only view the logged PLC information using visualization. The only possible action is a manual changeover and the acknowledgment. Users can use DigiVis and OPC server to read out data from or to write data to the HA-CS31 system. Writing data through OPC server will affect both PLCs. Reading out data is done from primary PLC.
