Dear Members, I have recently installed FactoryTalk View SE and I am looking to extract tag values along with their descriptions offline. Can anyone provide guidance on how to export this data to Excel? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am new to using FactoryTalk View. Best regards,
Hello, the option to export tags in a .CSV file is available right within the system. This feature allows you to easily save and transfer your tags for convenient organization and analysis.
DRB responded by stating that the option to export tags in a .CSV file is available. They also inquired about exporting tags that have associated values.
Do exported tags hold any value?
No, the values shown on the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) through tags do not originate from the HMI itself. Instead, these values are sourced from the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and stored within it.
Sure, I'd be happy to help! You can use the Tag Import and Export Tool (TIET) in FactoryTalk View to export your tags. To do this, open the TIET, make sure you're on the 'Export Tags' tab, then select your application. You'll then be able to select which tags you want to export and the output file format (in your case, Excel). Finally, just hit 'Export' and your tag values should be exported to your chosen Excel file. Remember to always backup your data before making extensive changes just in case.
