Tag Explorer
Displays the hierarchy of folders in a tree view that represents the areas and tag folders of these data sources:
  • Live Data
    : FactoryTalk Live Data tags.
  • Data Logs
    : FactoryTalk View SE data log model tags.
  • DataLogPro
    : FactoryTalk View SE DataLogPro tags.
  • Historical Data
    : FactoryTalk Historian tags (or points).
  • Asset Framework
    : FactoryTalk Historian Asset Framework tags (or attributes).
    Tip
    : Only attributes of PI Point type defined under
    Elements
    are supported, and the historical data is from the PI Points' associated historian server. For FactoryTalk Historian Asset Framework servers, avoid assigning the same name to both elements and attributes in the same element path. If they share a name, only one type, either the element or the attribute, will appear in the explorer.
  • Enterprise Historian
    : PI Server tags (or points).
When you select a folder, its tags are listed in an alphabetically sortable list on the
Items
pane at the bottom.
Double-click a tag to add it to the x-axis, and then double-click another tag to add it to the y-axis.
At runtime, you can also drag and drop one or multiple tags to the chart.
