DSC 7.1 --> DSC 8.0: event generation by tag write

[HeliosRight]

I'm trying DSC 7.1 - DSC 8.0 migration ... it's very hard !!!

I've some problems ... The first is the following:

By LV 7.1 / DSC 7.1, I've generated an event from writing the Tag ... ; I've forced the writing on vaue change too ... How can I do this In DSC 8.0 ?!

You can do this by wrapping one of the variable write mechanisms in a custom write VI which will use the 'Set User Defined Event' VI to generate the event.  Use the application property NISecurity.UserName to get the name of the logged in user.  This will allow you to determine the message you want to generate.  If you choose a process which is already running in the engine and configured to log alarms and events the engine will log the event to the appropriate Citadel5 database.

Hope this helps,

Robert
