Hello,

Sorry, im probably missing something silly but I have a Block Group looking at a PLC and a Memory Tag for the trigger. Everything is put into the Group, but when I go to select the trigger nothing is available for me to select.

I think that the trigger item must be a tag which is in the transaction group, but it can’t be a block. So, you might try adding a basic OPC/Group item and then seeing if you can trigger on that.

Let me know if this helps!

Thanks for the help.
