PointTag properties

Double-click a PointTag for its property sheet (Figure 39).

Figure 39. PointTag property sheet example

PointTag properties are described as follows:

Status

Read-only status of the export tag, typically “ok”, unless “disabled” (Enabled=false).
Enabled

Whether the tag will attempt an export on the next Join (true, the default) or not (false).
Supervisor Station

Click the drop-down control to select the NiagaraStation that represents the Supervisor (with enabled JoinProfile).
After selection, you must Save before you can use the folder (Select Parent Target) feature of the next property. Also, add (and delete ) controls exist to specify more than one Supervisor station; however, this configuration is rarely expected.
Station Slot Path

Parent slot path for the exported PxView on the Supervisor, relative to the NiagaraStation that represents this station. In the case of multiple Supervisor stations, this applies only to the first (top) one.
Station Slot Path must begin with slot:points
- You can manually type a path, to create corresponding folders under the NiagaraStation (that represents this JACE) on the Supervisor. This includes use of “BFormat” %value% options. For example: slot:points/RTU_1 or slot:points/%networkFolderPath%
  
  See Station Slot Path considerations and BFormat options in Station Slot Paths.
- Or, click the folder for a Select Parent Target dialog, and navigate to the desired folder or container. In this case, you must have already made (and saved) the needed folders in the JACE’s station “profile.bog” file.
  You can edit the “profile.bog file” to add NiagaraPointFolders under Points—see Verify and edit the Station (.bog) File for details. You should not select any parent folder other than under Points (property value must begin with slot:points).
Conversion

The standard Conversion property of a Niagara proxy point, with the default “Default” conversion selected (appropriate in most cases). Click the drop-down control for a list of available conversion types. For related details, see “ProxyExt properties” in the Drivers Guide.
Tuning Policy Name

The standard Tuning Policy Name property for a Niagara proxy point, with the default “defaultPolicy” specified. To specify another tuning policy, you must know its exact name in the Supervisor.
