Guys I know that this has been addressed before but after a search I come up empty handed. Can someone take me through the steps of creating an alias in RSLogix5000? I am new to the CompactLogix and I need to add some logic to this controller. I see alot of tags and alias, but I need to create a new one altogether.
Thanks
Let me restate the question. When creating new instructions in RSLogix5000 What is the steps to doing this? I know it is not as simple as dropping OTE and addressing it. from what I have read so far I see that I need to create a tag and an alias. I think that the alias is reference to a memory location or an address of a physical device. Here is another question, do I use the program tags sub file in the tree to see what tags are available or is that just what has been created thus far? and how do I add more for use in the program? I hope I am asking these questions right so you guys can understand.
