'IGS.B88_QC.B88_QC.Global.U_7087X001PDS101.STS.CMF'

so in this display I have links like this, now I have seen direct opc to plc before
but I remember I had to set the default OPC path in windows
So you think that what was done here
The IGS is talking to the PLC
and there are no database tags
These do exist Global.U_7087X001PDS101.STS.CMF
but the
Channel 1 = Network
Device1 = B88
then there is a Global
so
Network
B88
Global.
PRM.Clean

Any idea what this breaks down to

Uh, bit of a WAG here.

IGS.(The driver)
B88_QC.(The instance for the first, The PLC for the second)
Global.(This is telling you it is a global tag, not local to a task)
U_7087X001PDS101.STS.CMF(Some fairly horrible tag name, i'm sure it means something to the original programmer)
