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.

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.

Tags must be exported from at least one project before you can open the

IMPORTANT

Consolidate OPC Database dialog box.
