Use the Siemens S7 connector when you want to configure FairCom Edge to gather tags periodically from Siemens PLCs and devices. The connector converts the binary data into a JSON document, inserts it into an integration table of your choice, and can automatically send it to MQTT subscribers.
Note
A tag is a piece of named data with an associated value. For example, the tag temperature 70 includes both the named data temperature and the value 70. In JSON, a tag is a JSON property, such as "temperature": 70. In a SQL table, a tag is a data field, such as a field named temperature with a value of 70.
The FairCom Edge Siemens S7 service is included in the FairCom jsonAction API.
