Associate Tags with a Transfer Class

Each transfer class can have tags associated with it. Use the Edit Transfer Tags dialog box to associate tags with a transfer class.

Note: It is important to remember that for every transfer tag that you create, connection tags are automatically generated for each connection assigned to the class. These connection tags, not the transfer tags, are associated to data points in the control system. However, the transfer class tags are available to the recipe builder through the transition logic expression builder.

A transfer 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)

To edit transfer tags

1. On the Transfers tab, click Tags.

   The Edit Transfer Tags dialog box appears.

   

2. Make any necessary changes.

3. Click Add or Change as appropriate.
