reference a tag in an array of a PLC data type in a script

I am having the same issue. When I reference a tag in an array of a PLC data type in a script it turns green as in the tag is recognized and valid but returns an error that the data type is not initialized when viewing in the console debugger.

Thanks

Split from WinCC v16 Unified Script access to Array of PLC Data types.

Hello MJVILL,

I've also noticed similar behavior.
For the moment my solution was to create an HMI tag for every PLC array element.
Then the access to the elements worked.

 Nzett11,

Thank you for the reply. I saw I could copy the array elements individual but I really did not want to go that route as the applications engineers would be always needing to delete or add tags(The PLC array is based off of a variable system constant) BUT.....I did find that multiplex tagging works again in WinCC Unified and this was a perfect answer to the problem. I created an internal "Int" that I set based off the device data I am looking at and done. Many less HMI tags as well. Hope this helps someone else.
