Tag Browser

How do I open the
Tag Browser
?
  1. Select a graphic element.
  2. Expand the categories in the
    Properties
     tab to locate the property to bind to a tag.
  3. Point to the property box until the
    Binding
    button Icon: View Designer Binding Icon appears, click it, and click
    Bind property to item
    .
  4. Click
    Select Tag
    ST5K_Project_Properties_Browse_button.jpg to open the
    Tag Browser
    .
Use the
Tag Browser
 to search for and select tags, including system tags, and extended properties of tags to bind to properties of graphic elements and screens.
To display tags in the
Tag Browser
, you must reference the Logix project file (.acd) on the
References
tab on the
Project Properties
 dialog box.
Studio 5000 automatically synchronizes data between a
Logix Designer
 project file (.acd) and a
View Designer
 project file (.vpd). Therefore, when a tag is renamed in
Logix Designer
, the updated name is displayed in the
Tag Browser
 in
View Designer
.
Tip:
Rockwell Automation
 recommends using no more than 1,000 tag references on a single screen.
