Chapter 4 RSFieldbus Communication
Export Tags
A file with all the device and function block tags must be created to enable online
OPC communication with RSFieldbus software and third-party OPC clients.
Each time that you edit or add a device or block, the Export Tags procedure must
be repeated. Otherwise, supervision of the modified tag is not allowed.
1.
In the Project window, right-click a project icon and choose Export Tags.
The Export Tag message window appears.
2.
Click OK.
Consolidate the OPC Database
If your system has a centralized OPC server and you are using multiple projects at
the same time, you must consolidate the project tags for each project. This
process prevents exported tag information in the HseTagInfo.ini file from being
overwritten when tags are exported in the next project.
1.
In the Project window, right-click a project icon and choose Consolidate
OPC Database.
IMPORTANT
Tags must be exported from at least one project before you can open the
Consolidate OPC Database dialog box.
