Define a tag component
This chapter explains the overall structure of the tag component.
The tag component defines the tags associated with the logic you selected or
within the program you selected. Within a tag list in the L5K format, message and
motion tags must follow all non-motion tags, and axis tags must follow motion
group tag. Tags may appear in any order in the L5X format.
Important:
For detailed information about atomic and structure tags and their supported attributes and
ranges, see the Logix5000 Controller Common Procedures Programming Manual, publication
1756-PM001.
