Verify controller tags

Tag verification checks that tags in a
View Designer
 project are present in the referenced controller projects. Verification for tags occurs automatically upon downloading a project. Verify tags any time during project development. For example, verify tags after defining controllers for a project. The
Errors
window shows the results.
An invalid tag reference shows as a warning. The project may work when downloading the project to an HMI device after fixing the tags in the controllers using
Logix Designer
. Resolving warnings is not required to download a project.
To verify controller tags
  1. On the
    Menu
     bar, select
    Project >
    Verify Project
    . The
    Verify Project
     dialog box opens and verification begins.
  2. If there are invalid tags listed in the
    Errors
    window, double-click an entry to navigate to the source of the warning in the project, and make the necessary changes.
  3. Repeat the verification process until there are no warnings listed in the
    Errors
    window. The list updates each time the verification process runs for the project.
