No! You're right since for Perspective all of that logic is on the gateway. I've deleted that post.

Have a read of [Quality Codes and Overlays - Ignition User Manual 8.1 - Ignition Documentation](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Quality+Codes+and+Overlays#QualityCodesandOverlays-PerspectiveComponentOverlays). The overlays for Perspective aren't as comprehensive as those for Vision.
