For Schneider PLCs maybe the use of OFS is a better option and use tag names instead of addresses.
Hi Stuart,
not so long. XSY file is a text file with xml content. With a smart editor like Notepad++ it took 1minute, but it needs some expertise, not something special, don't worry. If you need, I can make a video, just let me know
Thanks Arian, good to know that it was an easy fix for you. To be honest, I am out of this space now, but would probably lean towards a product supported option, which I eventually got working in my test setup after repeatedly missing an obvious, important step. This would give future maintainers an opportunity to continue to use the integration without needing to maintain a separate workflow. This may not be a problem for your application.
If you are using an import file that is not supported, it is possible to create your own tag import/export filter. This is documented in the help page: https://gcsresource.aveva.com/plantscada/WebHelp/plantscada2020R2/Content/Format_file.html
However, if you don't have to do imports too often, it may be easier to just manually edit the XSY file.
