Assigning Source System Tags

Context

On the Source System Tags tab, you can search for tags for the selected agent instances and assign them to the enhancement variables. You only need to select source system tags if you want to read or write tag values by means of an agent instance in response processing within enhanced notification processing.

Procedure

Click on the Source System Tags tab.

The tab is displayed.
Choose the Insert Row or Append Row pushbutton.

PCo displays a new row with the agent call module agent.
Choose the Browse pushbutton.

PCo displays a dialog box.
If the namespace is empty, click Browse (next to the Filter field).

The namespace of the source system connected via the agent appears.
To be able to display the entire hierarchy of the namespace, open the top node (Root) and then all lower-level nodes.
Click to select the tag or tags that you want and then choose Add Selected Items.

The selected tags are displayed in the lower screen area (Selected Objects).
To close the dialog box, click OK.

PCo now adds the selected tags to the Source System Tags tab. If you have selected more than one tag, the system creates a new row for each tag.
Now you assign the appropriate enhancement variable to each tag. The variables can be selected from the dropdown box.

Note

The correct data type can only be determined for an enhancement variable directly after the tags are browsed. If you leave the Source System Tags tab without first assigning the variables, the rows without variable assignment cannot be configured later. In this case, you need to delete these rows and select tags again.
