Rockwell Automation 2711E PanelBuilder 1400e Modbus Communications - Manual (Page 45)

6–8 Defining Tags
Publication 2711E-6.12 – August 1997
Important: Because analog tags with References 1 or 3 are read
only, they can only be assigned to display objects (e.g.
Numeric Data Display). An error will be generated
when you validate the application, if a tag with
Reference 1 or 3 has been assigned to an input object.
For more information about types of objects, see
Chapter 9, “Creating Objects,” in the PanelBuilder
1400e Configuration Software for Windows User
Manual, Publication Number 2711E-819.
Configuring a Digital Tag
A digital tag has two possible values at runtime: 0 or 1. Use a digital
tag wherever a toggle or Boolean function is needed.
1. If the tag is part of a folder, select the folder in the folder
hierarchy. The folder name appears in the Name field and is the
first part of the tag name.
2. Type a tag name. If the tag is part of a folder, type the name after
the backslash (\).
3. For Type, select Digital.
