A result page will display. The first section provides you with the number of points
created, number of points not created and the total number of points in the module.
The second section provides Data Collection status. The Points Not Created table
provides a list of points not created and the error message that explain the reason why
the point was not created.
Duplicate tag names are not allowed. Points will not be created for tags that have the
same name but different scan rates or source tag files. If duplicate tag names are
discovered, the module will display the following message in the Points Not Created
table:
Point already exists
For optimal performance, we recommend that you stop and restart Data Collection
after you have finished point creation for all tags. If Data Collection is already
running, points will start to collect data.
If Data Collection is not running, click [Start Data Collection] to initiate Data
Collection.
Click [Back] to return to the first page and continue working with tags.
