NOVUS AUTOMATION 37/38
CONFIGURE REMOTE VARIABLES –OBJECT TAG
Tags used to remotely control the activation or deactivation of history, tasks or formulas during an application. To control
the actions locally, it is enough to create one of the mentioned types (history, task or formula) and the object tag related
to it is created automatically.
When you want to control a history, task or formula remotely, it is necessary to create an Object Tag, with the same
name as name of the tag created in the original local application. When creating this tag, it is already naturally a remote
tag, and there is no way to change this, because an object tag can only have a local origin when the proper history,
formula or task that it controls exists locally. Example in the images below.
In order to read the devices and the variables of the application remotely from a configuration in the Client
mode, the Tags created in the server and in the client shall have the same NAME (checking upper case,
lower case and spaces) and TYPE. In the Client mode application, the Tags associated to the devices
connected in the Server shall be set up as REMOTE ORIGIN.
