You can use any naming convention for your typical tags as long as it contains the typical tag number segment. The name segment of a typical tag can be the same length or shorter than the name segment of a tag. You defined tag name segments in the naming conventions for the current <unit>.
The naming conventions for typical tags are as follows:
-
Instrument type — up to 4 characters in the name segment, (the typical tag name segment is automatically truncated to 4 characters when the instrument type name contains more than 4 characters).
-
Typical tag number — up to 8 characters in the typical tag number segment.
-
Typical tag suffix — up to 3 characters in the typical tag suffix segment.
Example of a typical tag name: FT-FLOW_CTLR/2
The naming convention for typical loops is as follows:
-
Typical loop name — up to 50 characters. When using a loop suffix the maximum loop name length is shortened to 48 characters. The typical loop suffix can contain up to 3 characters. In addition, there must be a slash ("/") separator between the number and the suffix.
