Configuring multiple tags in one block or cell

By default, only one attribute/tag value is extracted from each block/cell and matched to an tag name in the vault. If your blocks/cells contain multiple tag names in multiple attribute/tag values within the same block, you can map each attribute/tag to a specific tag type.

To configure multiple tags in one block or cell:

Following is an example of one complete TAGBLOCK section for multiple attributes/tags:

[TAGBLOCK_BLOCK1]
TagFields=ATTR1,ATTR2:Instrument,ATTR3,ATTR4:Other
TagType=Equipment

In this example for a block/cell named BLOCK1, the equipment numbers in the attributes/tags ATTR1 and ATTR3 (tag types are not specified) are linked to the tag type Equipment (the default for the block/cell). The equipment number in the attribute/tag ATTR2 is linked to the tag type Instrument (specified). And the equipment number in the attribute/tag ATTR4 is linked to the tag type Other (specified).
