Delete digital states

Enable the Delete button. See Configure publishing settings.

After you retrieve digital state sets into Microsoft Excel, you can use PI Builder to delete selected digital state sets or digital states from Data Archive.

1. Retrieve selected digital states.

2. For digital states or digital state sets that you want to delete, enter X in the Selected(x) column; clear the column for any digital state or digital state set that you want to retain.

   To delete single digital states, you must delete those with higher enumeration values before those with lower enumeration values. On the other hand, if you delete a digital state set, you delete all digital states in that set.

3. On the PI Builder tab, in the Build group, click Delete.

4. At the confirmation prompt, click Yes.

   PI Builder deletes the selected digital states or digital state sets from Data Archive. The Delete Selected Objects window shows the operations completed.
