Yes, events can be triggered by a tag.

Do you have a specific example that is not working?

I think I should clarify. I was trying to find out if Events can be Enabled/Disabled by the Operator using a tag?

You can set any particular event to be conditioned upon multiple tags. Say for example you have an event based upon a tag in your plc, simply add a second tag, internal to your hmi that must be on to trigger the event. Alternatively the enable tag could be located in the plc.

Yes, when you add the event, set No. of Tags: to 2 and then select the appropriate logic needed.

Thanks Guys, Good idea! Im working on a cookie cutter application that will be sold as a package and the end user needs to have the ability to disable events depending on their specific setup.
Thanks again
