Entity Classes

The following optional entity classes are available:

Entity Classes

Class

Description

WagoController

The “WagoController” class identifies an entity as a full-fledged WAGO controller. An application can be assigned. The full range of functions is available.

ThirdPartyController

The “ThirdPartyController” class represents a controller from a third-party manufacturer to which a communication connection can be established via a WAGO controller. “ThirdPartyControllers” cannot be synchronized with WAGO controllers.

OtherDevice

The “OtherDevice” class represents any network device that is neither a “WAGOController” nor a “ThirdPartyController.” For these devices, you can configure a network connection, as well as Web-Based Management if it is present.

Switch

The “Switch” class is functionally identical to the “OtherDevice” class. However, it may have a different icon.

ApplicationInstance

The “ApplicationInstance” class is an instance that is always located under a WAGO controller. This instance cannot be moved and is subject to further application-specific rules.

FuntionalDataPoint

The “FunctionalDataPoint” class is used for functional data structures. This may represent a single measured value, for example.

SubBusDevice

The “SubBusDevice” class is used for functional data structures. This may represent an assembly, for example.

Group

With the “Group” class, the group members are shown as sub-entities in the structure of the solution. All the functions described apply to this class.
