# Plugin for retrieving data from Siemens PLCs via the S7 protocol (RFC1006)
[[inputs.s7comm]]
  ## Parameters to contact the PLC (mandatory)
  ## The server is in the <host>[:port] format where the port defaults to 102
  ## if not explicitly specified.
  server = "127.0.0.1:102"
  rack = 0
  slot = 0

  ## Connection or drive type of S7 protocol
  ## Available options are "PD" (programming  device), "OP" (operator panel) or "basic" (S7 basic communication).
  # connection_type = "PD"

  ## Max count of fields to be bundled in one batch-request. (PDU size)
  # pdu_size = 20

  ## Timeout for requests
  # timeout = "10s"

  ## Log detailed connection messages for tracing issues
  # log_level = "trace"

  ## Metric definition(s)
  [[inputs.s7comm.metric]]
    ## Name of the measurement
    # name = "s7comm"

    ## Field definitions
    ## name    - field name
    ## address - indirect address "<area>.<type><address>[.extra]"
    ##           area    - e.g. be "DB1" for data-block one
    ##           type    - supported types are (uppercase)
    ##                     X  -- bit, requires the bit-number as 'extra'
    ##                           parameter
    ##                     B  -- byte (8 bit)
    ##                     C  -- character (8 bit)
    ##                     W  -- word (16 bit)
    ##                     DW -- double word (32 bit)
    ##                     I  -- integer (16 bit)
    ##                     DI -- double integer (32 bit)
    ##                     R  -- IEEE 754 real floating point number (32 bit)
    ##                     DT -- date-time, always converted to unix timestamp
    ##                           with nano-second precision
    ##                     S  -- string, requires the maximum length of the
    ##                           string as 'extra' parameter
    ##           address - start address to read if not specified otherwise
    ##                     in the type field
    ##           extra   - extra parameter e.g. for the bit and string type
    fields = [
