Usage

Any type of tag except the Hist Trend tag.

Remarks

You rarely need to use the .Value dotfield. However, in some instances, it makes a calculation or parameter usage more clear.

Data Type

The same as the specified tag's type (read/write).

Valid Values

Depends on the type of tag specified.

Example

The following statement sets the value of the memory integer PumpRPM tag equal to 100:

PumpRPM.Value=100;

which is functionally equivalent to:

PumpRPM=100;
