SCADA/PLC comparison

Ignition
1

I am wondering if there exists a tool to compare the tags in the tag browser with the tags that are currently active in my device connections - I have various PLCs connected to this project and the site engineer changes tags frequently meaning that there are tags present in my folders that no longer exist.

I am hoping to quickly find out which tags actually exist in the devices so that I can clean up my tag browser and de-bug my project.

Please note that this project is a Perspective project.

Thanks!

Listing which PLCs you are using would vary our answer, but regardless there is no built in compare tool, you’d need to script one.

Could you just read all tags in your project and check their qualities and filter on those with bad qualities?

Thanks for your advice.

Seems like this would be a great starting point.
