Batch alias table (PIBAALIAS)

Aliases are defined and maintained by PI Batch Subsystem. An alias is used to define a PI tag that corresponds to an attribute (generally, the name of some measured quantity) of a process unit. The simple table consists of two columns: alias name and PI tag name. The alias name has two components: a unit name and attribute name. Alias syntax is:

\\unit name\common name

For example:

\\Reactor1\temperature

The unit name must be a defined PI Batch unit, that is, an entry for it must exist in the PIBAUNIT table. The PI tag name must also be valid.

See the

Applications User Guide

for details on how to manage data in this table.

The table name is PIBAALIAS. The primary key is Alias.
