Overview
|
A PSM, TIM or PC Input module can have Data Fields added to Alarms or Processes. This guide covers Static Lists when selecting List as the Source Type. Static Lists can only be used by the device that the list is setup on. Using this method makes each device individual from all others. This method works best when you have a specific list for a specific device that is not used on any other device.
