Capture report events for phase modules
Tag template
Tag[1].Name =[Unit] [phasemodule] [Event, value="Report"]
Tag[1].Value =[Descript]:[Pval]:[EU]-[Event]_Just for testing
Tag[1].Type = string
Tag[1].unitalias=[phasemodule] Report
Tag[1].phasealias=Report
Tag[1].Annotation=[BatchID]
Incoming data
[BatchID]=Batch_123
[Time]=08/12/2008 13:00:05.123
[Descript]= Level
[Pval]=123.456
[EU]=cm
[Event]=Report
[Unit]=U101
[PhaseModule]=PDL123
Resulting PI point: U101 PDL123 Report
Resulting event added to PI point:
-
Timestamp: 08/12/2008 13:00:05.123
-
Value: Level:123.456:cm-Report_Just for Testing
-
Annotation: Batch_123
The MDB module or PI AF asset for this phase module will have an alias that refers to this point.

Recording start and stop events
The following tag templates store 1 when an operation or phase starts and 0 when it ends.
Tag[1].Name = Activity on [Unit] [Pval]
Tag[1].Value = 1
Tag[1].Type = integer
Tag[1].Trigger = [Descript, value="Step Activated"] [Event, value="Step Activity] [EU, value="Operation"]
Tag[1].Trigger = [Descript, value="Step Activated"] [Event, value="Step Activity] [EU, value="Phase"]
Tag[2].Name = Activity on [Unit] [Pval]
Tag[2].Value = 0 Tag[2].Type = integer
Tag[2].Trigger = [Descript, value="Step Deactivated"] [Event, value="Step Activity] [EU, value="Operation"]
Tag[2].Trigger = [Descript, value="Step Deactivated"] [Event, value="Step Activity] [EU, value="Phase"]
Tag aliasing
The following tag templates create tags corresponding to the aliases shown in the figure below.
Tag[1].Name = Super Test1 [Unit]
Tag[1].Value = [Event] | [Pval]
Tag[1].Trigger = [Event,value=State Change]
Tag[2].Name = Super Test2 [Unit]
Tag[2].Value = [Event] | [Pval]
Tag[2].Trigger = [Event,value=State Change]
Tag[2].UnitAlias = stuff2\[Event] | Super Testing2
Tag[3].Name = Super Test3 [Unit] [PhaseModule]
Tag[3].Value = [Event] | [Pval]
Tag[3].Trigger = [Event,value=State Change]
Tag[4].Name = Super Test4 [Unit] [PhaseModule]
Tag[4].Value = [Event] | [Pval]
Tag[4].Trigger = [Event,value=State Change]
Tag[4].UnitAlias = stuff4\[Event] | Super Testing4 [PhaseModule]
Tag[4].PhaseAlias = phasa4\abc\[Event] | Super Testing4
Tag[5].Name = Super Test5 [Unit] [PhaseModule]
Tag[5].Value = [Event] | [Pval]
Tag[5].Trigger = [Event,value=State Change] Tag[5].UnitAlias = NONE
Tag[5].PhaseAlias = NONE
