Tags Page
To display the Tags page, click the Tags link in any of the Collectors, Clients, or Configuration page. The Tags page lets you read and modify all tag parameters of the Historian system. To access information on a specific tag or group of tags, however, you must first search for the tags.
You can search for tags in the Historian Tag Database by clicking the Search button or the Advanced Search button. You can also add tags manually or from the collector by clicking the appropriate icons on the Tags page.
The Tags page has two sections: Tag Viewer and Tag Editor.
Tag Viewer
Displays all the tags available in the system. You can choose to display the total number of tags you want to view by selecting the Show entries. To view all the tags, click the page numbers available at the bottom right of the section.

Tag Editor
In this section, you can view and edit specific tag parameters and options. To view all the tags, click the page numbers available at the bottom right of the section.
The Tag Editor allows you to edit specific tag parameters and options for one or more selected tags. To modify the values, enter new values in the appropriate fields and then click the Update button at the bottom of the screen to apply the changes. The Update button, when clicked, applies all parameter changes you have made on any tabs in this screen. If you want to cancel changes and return to the original values or settings, open a different page and then return to the Tag Details screen without clicking the Update button.
