Import Tag Data

About this task

The Import Data command is the converse of the Export Data command. It moves selected information from your current worksheet into the specified Server in the same way the Import Tags command functions.
Note: If you use the Active Hours setting while importing data using the Excel Add-In, note that if the first tags imported are not within the Active Hours settings, no subsequent tags will be returned on that import (even if they are within the set active hours).

Procedure

  1. Select Administration and then select Import Data from the Historian menu.
    A message box appears.
  2. Select Yes to initiate the operation. If successful, a window appears confirming the completion of the import function.
    Select OK to close the window. If errors occur on the import, a window appears detailing the issues encountered in the import. If an error occurs in any line of the import, the whole import is aborted.
