Confirm the TIA Portal version and Openness access first.
TIA / PLC DB Point Extraction
Explains how HQ Scan reads, reviews, and exports DB points, symbolic addresses, alarm candidates, and trend candidates from TIA Portal projects.
Scan scope controls which PLCs, DBs, and project-tree branches enter results.
Exports are based on reviewed normalized point results.
Guide
When users search for TIA export, PLC point export, or DB point extraction, they need to understand environment access, scan scope, field meaning, and export boundaries.
HQ Scan is a standalone data preparation tool for projects that need TIA / PLC DB point preparation. It reads project content through Openness access and exports reviewed results for later data integration and delivery workflows.
- Confirm the TIA Portal version and Openness access first.
- Scan scope controls which PLCs, DBs, and project-tree branches enter results.
- Exports are based on reviewed normalized point results.
HQ Scan runs on engineering workstations with TIA Portal and Openness access. Confirm project files, archives, access settings, and accounts first.
- Confirm TIA Portal version.
- Confirm Openness access.
- Confirm project path or archive source.
After scanning, review PLC, DB, symbolic address, data type, and rule matching results before deciding which content enters the export.
- Online scanning fits direct project access.
- Offline scanning fits archives or delivery packages.
- Rule Center narrows naming, filtering, and export boundaries.
HQ Scan can export normalized-tags, tag-import, alarm-import, trend-import, hqserver-create-tags, report files, and related outputs for import, review, or delivery.
