The process may differ slightly depending on the version you are using. To filter tags specifically from I/O modules, double-click on Controller tags, navigate to the Show field, and select Configure. Then, choose Module Defined from the options. Remember to reset this setting once you are finished to avoid any confusion with tag display in the future. Otherwise, the filter will remain in place, and you may find that some of your tags are missing.

To locate the I/O with tag names in Studio Logix 5000, click on the 'Controller Tags' in the Controller Organizer window, select the 'Edit Tags' tab, and you will see the I/O addresses with their corresponding Tag names. To export this to Excel, simply right-click anywhere within that window, choose 'Export', and select 'Save as Type' - Excel Files(*.xls). Make sure to save it in your desired location. It's pretty straightforward once you know where to look.

Hey there! The I/O mapping with tag names can be found under the controller tags window. When you're there, look for the "Input" and "Output" sections. As for exporting to Excel, there's a neat built-in feature for that. You should go to Tools -> Export tags, then select either .CSV or .L5K format. Open the result with Excel for a nicely formatted view. Just be aware that it doesn't export alias tags which can be a bit of a bummer. Hope this helps you out!
