Use Client Types

Client types typically represent your batch control system architecture. Before you can export tags, you must answer the following questions for each client type:

• Does the associated InTouch node provide tag data?

• Does the InTouch node require access to data from an external control system or AVEVA Batch Management?

• Does the InTouch application use Batch Function Tags?

• What is the name of the .csv file that you want to export to?

If the InTouch application provides tag data to AVEVA Batch Management, select the appropriate access name from the Export Access as InTouch Memory tags list.

If the InTouch application requires access to tag data that is associated with external control systems or AVEVA Batch Management, select the appropriate access names from the Export Access as InTouch IO Tags list.

You can associate an access name, such as InTouch, with either the Export Access as InTouch Memory tags or the Export Access as InTouch IO Tags classification, but not both.
