Can i use a tag as a paramater in a query template?

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have to create a display template bar chart using 5 tags in a tag query which are Run time, Setup time, Green Light time, Red Light time and Yellow light time. This is no problem to do. But I have to duplicate the chart for 24 machines or nodes.

My question is, do I have to create 24 query templates and 24 display templates for each node or can I paramaterize the node number which in the case below is 11 inside my tag query template?

An example of a tag is OPCSERVER.USBtoCAN.Node 11.RunMinutes

Any info will help as this will be 1 of many sweet charts and graphs I will need to create per node.

Thanks

Hamel,

Create a transaction BLS

1. Store the output of tag Query (5 tags in a tag query which are Run time, Setup time, Green Light time, Red Light time and Yellow light time) for all the 24 nodes into a document.

2.Use a repeater to to read rowwise the output of the all the 24 nodes.

3.Than u can display the output (Run time, Setup time, Green Light time, Red Light time and Yellow light time) for all 24 nodes in a grid.

Hopes this helps.
