Data Management
Advanced Tags & Calculated Values
Transform Raw Data into Actionable Insights
Create powerful calculated tags by combining multiple data points with mathematical formulas. Calculate KPIs, efficiency metrics, total consumption, and complex industrial parameters in real-time without programming.
Powerful Capabilities
Advanced Calculation Engine
Real-Time Calculation
All formulas are calculated in real-time as source tag values change. Get instant results without delays or batch processing.
Mathematical Operators
Support for addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, modulo, and parentheses for complex calculations.
Unlimited Tag Combination
Combine as many tags as needed in a single formula. Create complex calculations with multiple data sources.
Database Recording
Save calculated values to database with flexible scheduling. Analyze historical calculated data and trends.
Use in Formulas
Advanced tags can be used in other formulas and automation rules, creating powerful calculation chains.

How It Works
Simple 4-Step Process
Select Source Tags
Choose the tags you want to use in your calculation from your existing tag list.
Build Formula
Create your calculation using tag names and mathematical operators. Use parentheses for complex expressions.
Test & Validate
Test your formula with current tag values. Verify the calculation result before saving.
Configure & Save
Set calculation schedule, enable database recording if needed, and save your advanced tag.
Best Practices
Tips for Effective Advanced Tags
Keep Formulas Simple
Break complex calculations into multiple advanced tags for better maintainability and debugging.
Use Descriptive Names
Name your advanced tags clearly to indicate what they calculate. Use prefixes like 'Calc_' or 'Total_'.
Handle Edge Cases
Consider division by zero, null values, and connection errors. Use static tags for fallback values.
Optimize Performance
Avoid unnecessary calculations. Use appropriate scheduling intervals based on how often values change.
Document Formulas
Add descriptions to your advanced tags explaining the calculation logic and purpose.
Test Thoroughly
Verify calculations with known values before deploying to production. Monitor results initially.
