Hello @agabac07
Welcome to the forum!
To increase the number of any Input or Output in Factory I/O, you have to edit the field you want to change. In your case, select the DWORD Output Count and type how many outputs you want, but notice that the max is 64.
I hope this helps.
Thank you but I meant with the simulation
I need your help .is there a way how I can increase the number of analog outputs from the limit number 8 to 12 outputs when am using the PLCsim and Tia portal software
Hello @agabac07,
I’m sorry, I’m not sure I understand your question.
Do you want to change the limit in Factory I/O or in TIAPortal?
Where exactly did you find this limitation?
When using PLCSIM, to add more outputs or inputs in Factory I/O, you do the same thing I mentioned in my previous reply.
I want to increase my analog outputs to 12 when am using plcsim ,Tia portal software and factory Io
but it has refused it stops only at 8 analog outputs that the maximum in the column of count it stops at only eight I can’t change..and in the column of offset both the dword input and out put stops have only 30$32 which means you can only change to 30 for both or 32 still …but my issue is on the count column
I went to confirm, and PLCSIM’s driver has an I/O range of 64 bytes, which means that the maximum count for the DWORD inputs and outputs is 16. You’ll also have to configure the DWORD offset so you can use all the 16 outputs, but notice that if the BOOL and DWORD offsets are both 0, then the signals will overlap and get overwritten.
