Subject: Naming Conventions and Control Logix

ControlLogix Users,

I am wondering what folks do about ControlLogix Tag names when it comes to naming conventions.

1) As I understand it ControlLogix Tags names may contain underscores, letters, and numbers. Most naming systems include other separators such as hyphens, colons, periods. So what happens when these two meet?

2) Many times a ControlLogix tag has a corresponding EPICS database record. How do you distinguish these names, i.e. the Record name and the Tag name? Or are they the same and distinguished by context?

Thanks,
