Digital control tags were originally unique to VTScada, but are now available to all VTS applications. These tags transmit digital data that is entered by the user or from another tag and write it to an I/O device.
A digital control tag might be used to turn a pump off or on, open a valve, or change the mode of a piece of equipment from manual to auto.
