Associate Tags with Connections

Each connection in a process model can have tags associated with it. Use the Edit Connections Tags dialog box to associate tags with a connection. Connection tags are virtually identical to unit tags, except that connection tags are associated with the connections between units.

A connection tag consists of the following elements:

• Phase Name (optional, 16 characters maximum)

• Parameter Name (optional, 16 characters maximum)

• Element Name (required, 5 characters maximum)

• Description (optional, 120 characters maximum)

• Data Class (required: Analog, Discrete, String, or Enumeration)

• Access Mode (Required: either Read Only or Read/Write)

• Attribute (optional, 16 characters maximum, select from available InTouch dot fields)

To edit connection tags

1. On the Connections tab, click Tags. The Edit Connection Tags dialog box appears.

   

2. Make any necessary changes.

3. Click Add or Change as appropriate.
