Hello:  
I’ve installed ignition software 7.8.5 on one machine and 7.8.2 on another. With the 7.8.5 version, the scan class for a tag has only two options: Default and Default historical. With 7.8.2: It has option to set it for 15 min, 1 sec, 1 hours … Am I missing something with 7.8.5? Please let me know.

Thank you very much in advance,  
Shwetha.

Hi there

In the Designer’s tag browser you got an Icon that looks like a clock (stop watch). Click on it and you will be able to add scan classes that will suit you.
