Excel Add-In / OPC Tags

Good Afternoon.  

  We have a 3rd party vendor who provides our Data reports.  He has informed me that he is limited to the 250 tags provided by DeltaV.  

 

  I am pretty positive I have the Excel Add-In installed on my Pro Plus, which I was told, would allow for an additional 500 tags.       I guess my question is, how do I know how many tags I am licensed for/using?  Is there a way to check that?  

How do I obtain the additional 500 the Excel-Addin was supposed to give?  

Is it possible to purchase an additional amount of data points/tags from Emmerson?  If so can you point me to a webpage for pricing?

  • The Excel Addin is both a license and an Excel add-in. when you purchase the product you get a 500 tag OPC license you can assign to a workstation where Excel is running.

    if you simply installed the addin to Excel you are limited to the OPC license size on that computer.

    you can see the assigned licensing is the License report from Explorer. note that this is not an scale up license. It is intended for pro or operator stations. it will not increase an existing base license to 750.
