Custom RTD Namespace

How do I open Custom RTD Namespace?
  1. From the
    Start
     menu, select
    Rockwell Software
     >
    FactoryTalk Linx Gateway Configuration
    .
  2. Expand
    RTD Server
    , and then select
    Custom namespace
    .
Use the
Custom RTD Namespace Tags
 editor to create tag definitions for the Excel RTD interface and bind or map them to system data points to provide consistent names for different components or to provide a limited list of tags that can be accessed from an external Excel client.
If you do not use
Tag Browser
 to add or edit a tag in the
Custom RTD Namespace Tags
 editor, you must ensure that the tag’s data type is the same as the data source, such as the Logix controller, or OPC UA server connected via the FactoryTalk Linx OPC UA Connector.
If you change a tag’s data type in a controller, you must ensure that the tag’s data type is consistent in the
Custom RTD Namespace Tags
 editor is the same as that in the controller. Otherwise, an error message "BadTypeMisMatch" appears in the UA clients.
You can back up or restore the namespace when you click the namespace node.
