Duplicate Point Name Dialog Box

Use this dialog box to handle point name conflicts arising from trying to create a point with the same point name as an existing point.

In the following descriptions, source point is the point that the command is attempting to create, and destination point is the existing point.

Duplicate Point Name Resolution

Resolution

Specifies how the point name conflict is resolved:

  • Counter: adds a numerical suffix to the current point name. A new point is created. The second instance of the duplicate point name would be <point name> (1).
  • Specify: Displays the Point Name edit box to specify a name for the imported point.
  • Use Name Template: Creates a new point and assigns the point name based on the point name template.
Point Name
