Tagging objects

A tag adds additional information to a database record. You can tag remote station records in a Supervisor station database, device, point, and schedule records. Tagging is integrated in all of the manager views via Tag Mode and the TagIt button.

You are working in Workbench connected to a Supervisor station.
  1. Navigate to the manager view that contains the objects to tag.
    For devices, open the Device Manager by double-clicking the network component under Config > Drivers. For points, double-click the station in the Nav tree and double-click the Points container.
  2. Select one or more records to tag and click the Tag Mode tool () in the toolbar.
    The Tag Dictionary opens either above the manager view or splits the top pane with another view and activates the Tagit button.

  3. Select the tag in the top pane and click TagIt.
    The tag chooser opens.
  4. Configure the tag and click OK.
    The TagIt button applies the selected tag(s) and displays the Tag Added confirmation window.
