The default values of the fields should only be changed if required for the
particular application.

The log rate determines the sampling period in minutes and should correspond to
the log rate of the meter tag in FactoryTalk EnergyMetrix software.

Select file numbers that will not conflict with any existing files assigned in your
controller. In this example, config file N99, interfact file F100, and queue files
F101 to f199 will be created by the wizard. The queue length (99 files) and the log
rate determine the time ADR data will be available. In this example, the ADR
time span is 99 * .25 hour = 24.75 hours.

Available file numbers are determined by the controller type and memory size.
MicroLogix and SLC controllers have a maximum file index of 255. PLC-5
controllers have a maximum file index of 999. CompactLogix and ControlLogix
controllers have no limit on the number of files.

4. Click next and enter the tags for ADR to buffer, one tag per line.

The Index is the value to enter into the meter tag setup Trend log parameter field.
It starts at 5 and auto-increments for each tag entered.

The Address is the address in the controller where the real-time data is stored.
