Question:
Is it possible to read digital inputs (SOE) with a Block Tag via DNP driver?
Solution:
No, this is not possible, because all elements in the block share the same TimeStamp, and each event has a unique occurrence’s instant. So, to perform this read, you must use a PLC tag whose B2 parameter is set to 0 (READ FROM CACHE). The exception to this case is when you use a single block of events, because in this case, each event’s TimeStamp will be reported in a fixed block element.
