Reference Item names in Equipment editor?

Nick Dacek

Hey Guys,

Real quick, is there a way to reference the item name in the equipment editor?

Trying to build a bunch of equipment and data types. Being able to reference the equipment name would save me some time. 

Currently my tag name looks like this: {equipment.IODEVICE}_HGC_PRM_BOOL_19

Where I wish i could put {equipment.IODEVICE}_HGC_{equipment.ItemName}

Thoughts?
Thanks guys!

  • Nick,

    I know you can reference the equipment instance name {equipment.NAME} (somewhat undocumented from what I can tell because it's not in the right-click menu) but I don't think there is a way to reference the actual item name in the template. You may be able to edit the underlying XML so it adds the item name to it during the update process. I know there are customizations that can be done in the XML, but I have not had any time to experiment with it much.
