Industrial Edge: Qc 0 Intended For S7 Connector Tags

Hi,
I'm connected to 1500 PLC, reading data via S7 Connector (S7 Protocol). The values I'm getting are correct, but in Flow Creator I've noticed that they come with qc 0. Why is that?
Thanks,
Joanna

S7 Connector Quality Control (QC) Value of 0

S7 Connector - Quality Control (QC) of 0

Hello Joanna,

The Quality Control (QC) value of 0 you are observing with the S7 Connector in Flow Creator indicates that the data is valid but not timestamped. The S7 protocol, by default, doesn't provide timestamps with the data.

This behavior is normal and doesn't necessarily indicate an error with your data acquisition. The value itself is correct, but the QC field flags the absence of a timestamp.

For more detailed information on QC values and S7 Connector behavior, please refer to the following SiePortal article:

Understanding Quality Control (QC) Values in MindSphere

If you require timestamped data, consider exploring alternative methods or data enrichment processes within MindSphere.

Best regards,
