Assign an Enumerated Set to a Tag

Before you begin

About this task

If you assign an enumerated set to a tag, when you retrieve the tag data, instead of the actual values, the corresponding state names appear.

Example of an Enumerated Set

Suppose you have created the following states in an enumerated set:
State Name State Range
ON 0 to 100
OFF 101 to 200
Suppose you assign the enumerated set to a tag. If the tag values are, say, 50, 100, 75, and 104, when you retrieve the tag values, ON, ON, ON, and OFF, respectively, are retrieved instead of the actual tag values.
