Templates enable you to capture data from the data source, specifying the format for the desired data and the events that cause the interface to capture the data. To configure templates, go to the PI Event Frames Interface Manager Templates tab. You can define the following types of templates:
|
Template Type |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Tag |
Create and update PI tags using data from data source. |
|
Property / Attribute |
Create and update event frame attributes using data from data source. |
|
Recipe |
Override the data source recipe level names. |
|
Asset attribute |
Create and update element attributes using data from the data source. |
|
DCS template |
Identify the value from event frame attributes that contain the batch ID of the batch that we want to link to as a child object. |
You can configure templates that map the source data to string, integer or float data types and configure the format of the information to be written to the target. The precise format of the events coming from the data source depends on the BES vendor. For detailed information, refer to Templates.
