ME Rule Editor.
Creating Tag Attribute Files
FactoryTalk Historian ME uses a Tag Attribute file named FTHMETagDefault.xml
by default. However, you can create your own Tag Attribute files. Use the Tag
Attribute File List dialog to create a new tag attribute file or edit an existing file. The
Tag Attribute File dialog provides a subset of all of the available attributes that can be
assigned. You associate a Tag Attribute file with a discovery rule, which results in all
points discovered using that rule acquiring the attributes defined in the Tag Attribute
file.
