[Trend]FileNameType

Specifies whether your trend file names will be long or short. There are three options: Compatible file names, Long file names, and Short file names.

• Compatible File Names - All new trend files will have long file names if supported by the operating system. Existing short file names will be unaffected. The trend system will check for short file names, so Plant SCADA startup may take longer.

• Long File Names - All new and existing trend files will be assigned long file names. Existing short file names will not be deleted, but the trend system will be unable to use them.

• Short File Names - All new and existing trend files will be assigned short file names. Existing long file names will not be deleted, but the trend system will be unable to use them.

Allowable Values:

• 0 - (Compatible file names)

• 1 - (Long file names)

• 2 - (Short file names)

Default Value:

0
