Useful N4 Tips

Just some helpful things that you may not know. Please feel free to contact me with other tips to add here of course we will credit to you.

Point summary / b formating

On the Px pages the point summary can be pretty useless example Filter = true(ok) this tells you nothing. It on IQVision(TREND)
change it to %parent.parent.parent.name%_%parent.parent.name%_%proxyExt.trendRefernce%_%displayName?typeDisplayName% = %.%
this give you the LAN_OS_PointREF(ie S0001orD0134) name and state
for BACNET replace %proxyExt.trendRefernce% for %proxyExt.odjectId%
and for MODbus point %proxyExt.dataAddress%
If you need anything different look at the AX property sheet and look at the wording just remember that the first word is always lowercase and the second word starts with a capital letter with no space.
