11.4 On Your Own

The Chlorination Unit requires the addition of 3 digital input tags, 1 analog input tag, and 1 analog output tag. You have had experience in adding both digital input and analog input tags; therefore this is a good time to practice your skills.

Note: This will be your first experience creating a new area for a tag.  To do this, click on the area drop-down selector, but instead of selecting one of the existing areas, type in the name of the new one. When you press Enter, the new area will be saved and added to the list.

1.  Add the following tags:

          Type:                                Digital Input

          Name:                              DI40_1
