Calculated Variables

Calculated Variables in Citect SCADA 2016 allow users to generate tags at runtime from a Cicode expression and to call internal Cicode functions. A tag value is calculated for I/O devices that have their protocol set to "CICODE" and a tag associated with the I/O device that has a valid Cicode expression as its address.

Calculated variables significantly reduce the coding required in Cicode functions to manipulate tag values, thus improving code maintainability.
