3.3 Tag Group Displays
A tag group is a collection of related tags that show information about the
process, in blocks called faceplates. Each tag group consists of between one
and eight tags, depending on how many have been assigned to the group.
OSx provides a faceplate displaying symbols and text for each tag type
except the recipe area tags and the tags that represent the system stations.
Figure 3-6 shows an example of a tag group display.

NOTE: A point on a tag group display changes to magenta, and the
animation stops, under the following circumstances:
• The OSx station loses communication with the control node.
• The o perator deactivates the scan for a tag from a tag detail display.
• A tag contains no points that are configured for network scan.
• The controller returns invalid floating point data for tag types with
floating point attributes.
• Data has been assigned to an invalid controller memory location and
the system cannot collect the data.
• The o perator sends the
Scan_off command to the OSx station.
