How Does Historian Data Appear in the Model

Review the following to understand how the Historian data source names display in the Web HMI model for CIMPLICITY and iFIX.

CIMPLICITY Example

In CIMPLICITY, the BLUE.ANIDPYVAL_DATATYPES_UFT_CL_INSTANCE00.dt_INT data source tag name represents the following:

  • BLUE = Project Name
  • ANIDPYVAL_DATATYPES_UFT_CL_INSTANCE00 = Class ID
  • dt_INT = Point

In the Historian Source Address field, this tag appears as: 

\\BLUE\ANIDPYVAL_DATATYPES_UFT_CL_INSTANCE00.dt_INT
In the Web HMI model, this tag appears as:
BLUE_ANIDPYVAL_DATATYPES_UFT_CL_INSTANCE00.dt_INT

iFIX Example

In iFIX, the IFIX58S1.HWT_FWP_DPUMP_1A_FLOW.F_CV data source tag name represents the following:
  • IFIX58S1 = Node
  • HWT_FWP_DPUMP_1A_FLOW = Tag
  • F_CV = Field

In the Historian Source Address field, this tag appears as: 

IFIX58S1.HWT_FWP_DPUMP_1A_FLOW.F_CV

In the Web HMI model, this tag appears as:

IFIX58S1.HWT_FWP_DPUMP_1A_FLOW.F_CV
