This Driver contains simple ping Tags and also Tags to scan IP addresses.

Simple Ping Tags perform ping commands to unique hosts, specified using a configuration by Strings or by N parameters.

IP Scan Tags only allow configuration by Strings. This feature is only available in Elipse E3, in Elipse Power, and in Elipse Water, therefore it cannot be used in Elipse SCADA.

Notice that there is no need to type Item parameters of scan Tags, as this Driver has a Tag Browser feature in Elipse E3, in Elipse Power, or in Elipse Water, shown on the next figure.

Tag Browser window

To add scan Tags in an application, drag them from the Tags available from driver list on the right to the Tags from current project list on the left.

The next topics describe the different types of Tags individually.
