Browsing the Process Database

To browse the process database:

  1. In the iFIX WorkSpace, open a dialog box that displays a Data Source field. For instance, double-click a datalink to display the Datalink dialog box, or open an Expert dialog box to add a basic animation.
  2. Click the Browse button to the right of the Data Source field. The Expression Builder dialog box appears.
  3. Click the FIX Database tab.
  4. From the Node Names, Tag Names, and Field Names list boxes, respectively, select the SCADA server, block, and field you want. If a list box has many entries you do not want to display, filter the data source.
  5. Enter the tolerance, deadband, and refresh rate for this connection.
