If the data values in the selected range
are not all the same, clicking this icon will
switch all of them to match the first data
value in the selected range.
Increment
Assigns increasing tag index numbers
starting with the first tag in the selected
range.
Default
Resets the value to default.
Y-axis grouping
(unit)
Groups Y-axes whose unit is the same
together.
Y-axis grouping
(unit & scale)
Groups Y-axes whose unit and scale value
are the same together.
Copy
Copies the settings of the first tag in the
selected range to the other tags in the
selected range.

Assigning Tags Automatically
Tags assigned on the Tag Setting Page can be assigned
automatically to display groups.
There are two methods for automatic assignment.
• Assign According to Tag Number
When you specify the number of tags to assign to
each display group, the specified number of tags are
assigned in order from the first number of display
group 1 on the Tag Setting Page.
For example, if the total number of tags is 50 and
you set the number of tags to 10, 10 tags will be
assigned to each group from Group 1 to 5.
• Assign According to Device
The tags of a single device are assigned to each
display group. For each device (device number)
that a tag has been assigned to, assign the tag to
a display group. Tags are assigned in ascending
order by device number starting with display group
1. Within a display group, tags are assigned in
ascending order by tag number.
If the number of tags of a device is greater than the
number of waveforms in a display group, multiple
display groups will be used for the device.
