Tags and the Project Database<br />

Importing an External Database<br />

Import Wizard<br />

The Import Wizard is a powerful tool that reduces engineering time during project development. Using<br />

the Import Wizard, you can import tags from different data sources directly to the project tags database.<br />

Depending on the data source, you can import not only the tag names, but also the communication interface<br />

(the link between the tags and the PLC addresses).<br />

When you click Import Wizard on the Home tab of the ribbon, an Import Database Wizard dialog displays to step<br />

you through the process of importing tags. There are three steps for importing tags from these data source<br />

types:<br />

• <strong>InduSoft</strong> Web Studio Project Database<br />

• OPC Server Database<br />

• CSV Database<br />

• ODBC Database<br />

• RSLogix 5000 CSV Database<br />

• PanelBuilder32 Database<br />

• OMRON CX Programmer Database<br />

• TwinCAT PLC Database<br />

• PanelMate Plus Database<br />

Step1: Select the Source Type<br />
