Real-time tag data in email

[PaulKim1003]

Hi,

I am trying to automatically send an email via RSLogix 5000.

I have already set up my msg instructions to configure the mail server and created a string tag for the email body.

I can send an email to myself. I am just curious how I would go about adding the tag data in the message.

Has anyone done this?

Thanks

There may be a better way to do this PaulKim, but a string tag is actually a defined data type of several elements.  A Length Variable usually a SINT/DINT and then an array of SINTS.  To add tag data to your email body it is a simple matter of copying the TAG from it's register into the proper SINTs of the string for body.  And then adjusting the length variable accordingly.
