Dave Posted October 20, 2020 Report Share Posted October 20, 2020 Does anyone know of a way that I could use the Alias name of an I/O tag, as a text variable? What I would like to do, is create screens that display the status of connected I/O. The status would be indicated by a binary image element. Beside the indicator element, I would like to have a text box that I could link to the Alias name of the respective I/O. That way, if/when I/O Alias names change, the associated text boxes, on the I/O Status screens, would change accordingly. If there is no way to currently do such a thing, perhaps the almighty creators would consider making it possible in future releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORSO2001 Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 Hi Dave, in my opinion this is a good request...because, I think, all of us have one or more debug pages about the I/O status (also to force the output as test)...and always I have to manually write the "name" of the I/O that usualy is the same, or can be, as usedin the "alias".
