Limit Checks tour options

The Limit Checks tab enables you to set the level of limit violation check.

First, decide whether you want an action to occur automatically when a limit is violated. If you do, select the Automatically perform action option. Conversely, if you want the user to be prompted for action when a limit is violated, select the Prompt user for action option.

If you select Automatically perform action, decide whether you want the value always to be accepted or always to be rejected. Select the Accept Value or Reject Value option accordingly. If you want the user to be alerted visually that the automatic action has taken place, select the Show visual indication to user check box.

Note: The visual indication is a color change to the tag's row on the Data Entry Sheet page in PI Manual Logger PC for the tour run. Additionally, a window opens indicating which limits are violated.

For details about using limit checking for data validation, see Data validation.

Note: Regardless of which limit checking levels you select in the Tour Options window, limit violation is always recorded in the auditing and message log system in PI Manual Logger.
