Hey everyone,
I'm working on a program that will be a smaller part of another contractor's plant control program for a hydro generating station. This program is in place at a few other stations and works great, but the contractor is building his program using the plant control program from a previous plant as a template.
In making our program, we basically just copied and pasted our routines from the program for the previous station into the contractor's and exported our tags from that program into the new one. In doing so, we ended up with a lot of clutter and a few instances of the same base tag having two aliases. I know this isn't an issue operationally, as the contractor is obviously only using his tags (and the old tags are pretty close to being the same anyways since he used the old program as a template), but the tag database is unnecessarily large and cluttered.
My question pretty much is if there's any way to do a search of all the tags that don't get used in the program? This would allow me to delete them and have a much cleaner and simpler tag database.
For reference, my Logix Designer is V24.00.00 (CPR 9 SR 7.1).
Thanks in advance.
