&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;==Consistent Reading/Writing arrays and structures from data blocks==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Arrays und Structures within data blocks ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simple arrays and structures are displayed as a variable with all values. This is only possible as long as the structure does not contain further substructures (i.e. the last Level), otherwise it will be displayed as a directory:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Reading the Variable: Consistent ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Data can only be read consistently from a PLC if all the data of a structure fits in a telegram (PDU size).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The telegram size can be different. If a structure can be read or written consistently, the value of the variable &amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;Consistent&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039; will be set to &amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;true&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;. As long the structure or size of the CPU does not change, the value of the variable will not change. That means the value must be evaluated only once during commissioning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Data can only be read consistently from a PLC, if all the data of a structure fits in a telegram (PDU size). This allows the OPC UA client very confortable and safe to check the consistency of the data.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
