the alarm summary. A tag placeholder is the cross-hatch character (#)
followed by a number from 1 to 500. The placeholder can also contain
wildcards and folder names. See “Using tag placeholders” on
page 11-37 for more information.
If you use tag placeholders, at runtime you must specify the tag each
placeholder represents, either by using a parameter file or by typing
the tag names on the command line. You can also use wildcards in the
parameter file or on the command line.
Example: Using a parameter file to replace tag placeholders
The parameter file called Beans specifies which tags to use for the
placeholders in a display:
#1 = bean_weight
#2 = bean_level
#3 = bean_temp
To run the display called Canning with the Beans parameter file, type:
Display Canning /PBeans
For more information see “Using a parameter file to replace tag
placeholders” on page 11-38 and“Listing tag names to replace tag
placeholders” on page 11-40.
Tag Type
Only the tag types that are checked will appear in the alarm summary.
To include all alarms, leave both Analog and Digital checked.
Alarm States
If you want a message to appear in the alarm summary when an alarm
is in fault or when a tag goes out of alarm, leave both Faults and Out
of Alarm checked.
