For example:

1. Set the 02001A6266:DO_00 measuring point value as 1

<SETVAL>02001A6266:DO_00=1

2. Widget jump to the path /Express/XXX

<GOTO>DASHBOARD=/Express/XXX

3. Perform 02001A6266:DO_01 alarm confirmation

<ALMACKS>02001A6266:DO_01

4. A digital input dialog box pops up to manually change the numerical value of 02001A6266:DO_00

<DIALOG>TAGVALCHG=02001A6266:DO_00

Examples:

<SETVAL> :

<SETVAL>TAGNAME=VALUE

                Set a tag with a specified amount value.

<SETVAL>TAGNAME=%REVERSE         

Flip the state of the tag. Although intended for use with digital tags, it will work with analog tags. Used with SETVAL. If the digital state is 0 and is a two-state digit, %REVERSE will flip its state from 0 to 1. If an analog tag, %REVERSE will flip it based on the percent of span. If the current value is 25% of the span, %REVERSE will make it 75% of the span.

<SETVAL>TAGNAME=%PLUS VALUE

                Increment tag with a specified amount value.

<SETVAL>TAGNAME=%MINUS VALUE

Decrement tag with a specified amount value.

<GOTO>:

<GOTO>DASHBOARD=/PROJECT_NAME/SAVED_DASHBOARD

<ALMACK>:

                <ALMACK>

Acknowledge all alarms.

<ALMACKS>:

<ALMACKS> TAGNAME
