Checking Device Tags

A device typically contains all of the identifying information (such as higher-level

function, mounting location, and identifier) in its device tag. An identifier check
function is available for checking the length and validity of the characters in the
specifications for the DT.
Precondition:
You have opened a project.
Options > Settings > Projects > "Project name" > Devices > DT syntax check
1. In the Settings: DT syntax check dialog, check the Enable check check box.

2. In the group boxes Identifier blocks, Device tags, and Count numbers,
specify the scope of the test for the components of the DT.

3. Click [OK].

After specifying the device data in the Properties <...> dialog, EPLAN checks
whether the syntax for the specified device tag identifier is correct.
If this is not the case, EPLAN opens a message dialog in which the incorrect
elements are displayed. Via [Settings], you can go from this message dialog to the
setting for DT syntax checking. There you can check, and if necessary, correct your
syntax settings. If the "error" is a an intentional deviation from the syntax, you can

select [Ignore] to leave the dialog and accept your entry without having to change
the settings.
