Application Server browser restrictions

The following restrictions apply when viewing Application Server objects with the InTouch Attribute Browser dialog box:

• Only run-time visible attributes in a single Galaxy’s namespace are viewable. This includes the capability to switch between an object’s TagName and its HierarchicalName.

  An object attribute can be selected from the Attribute Browser dialog box if it meets the following requirements:

  • Visible during run time

  • From a currently checked in AutomationObject

  • Attribute name does not have an "_" following a "."

• The Attribute Browser dialog box only shows Application Server object attribute data types supported by the InTouch HMI. For more information about supported data types, see Map Application Server data types to InTouch data types.

• The InTouch Attribute Browser dialog box does not show any attributes that would result in an InTouch Item Name greater than the 95 character maximum.

• Automation object array elements can be displayed or retrieved in the InTouch HMI by using "TagName.AttributeName[index]" as a reference. Use an index of -1 to show or retrieve all array element values.

• You can select a property of an object attribute with the Tag Browser. By default, the Value property is selected when the attribute is selected.
