Configure a UDT member as an I/O tag

You can configure a UDT member as an I/O tag in the same manner as other InTouch I/O tags. In the Properties grid, configure the Type, Access name, and Item name fields to set the member as an I/O tag.

Example: configure a UDT member as an I/O tag

1. Create the access name “SIM” for the local Simulator server.

   

2. Activate the SIM server from the Operations Control Management Console (OCMC).

   

3. Select and configure the ExcitationVoltage example member.

   

4. Configure properties to make the member an I/O Tag. You can also override the Access name and/or Item name at the instance level.

   1. Set Type to I/O Integer

   2. Set Access name to SIM (you can select from the drop down list)

   3. Set Item name to i01

5. Create a graphic and add an animation with the reference shown in the following illustration.

   

6. Embed the graphic you just created and view it in run time. The value should bind to the I/O reference.
