Tag List and Tag Properties
The format of Source Address for the Server to Cloud Collector is typically of format: Result = CurrentValue("SJC1GEIP05.Simulation00002"). For other collectors the format of the source address should be the value expected by the source server, for example, OPC and PI Collector tags typically use the Tag source item id for the SourceAddress.
Server to Cloud Tag Example:
<Tag>
<Tagname>simCollector2</Tagname>
<SourceAddress>Result = CurrentValue("SJC1GEIP05.Simulation00002")</SourceAddress>
...
</Tag>
OPC Collector Tag Example:
<Tag>
<Tagname>simCollector2</Tagname>
<SourceAddress>Channel1.Device1.Tag1</SourceAddress>
...
</Tag>
You can configure the following properties:
