Process analyst Pen types

Hi Guys,

I think its not possible but I just want to throw out this question.

When adding new pin on PA, is there a way to auto select the Pen type? If I am selecting a digital trend tag, is there a way to get the Pen type to get set to digital automatically?

thanks,

  • Unfortunately, there is no digital trend tag type. However, you could check the data type of the variable tag that you are trending. Use the TagGetProperty() function to read the Type property.

    Hopefully your trend tag names match your variable tag names. If they are different, then you would need to read the trend tag definition to find the expression field and find the tag name(s) from that.
