I. DATA EXTRACT & COUNTING (VLOOKUP, LEFT, MID, RIGHT, COUNTIFS)
1. To extract data from tag
2. Create List of Inst &populate
3. Instr. Type Description at RefTable Sheet
Format Tag No. Instr. Type Instr. Type Description Loop No.
Format 1 13LSL-1234A LSL LEVEL SWITCH LOW 1234A
13TS-1235 TS TEMP. SWITCH 1235
13PSLL-1236 PSLL PRESS. SWITCH LOW LOW 1236
-
Format 2 16-PSL-1234A PSL PRESS. SWITCH LOW 1234A
13-PSLL-4567 PSLL PRESS. SWITCH LOW LOW 4567
-
Format 3 S13-PSLL-4567 PSLL PRESS. SWITCH LOW LOW 4567
S16-XI-1234A XI IND. LAMP 1234A
IO Count
DI (IS) 6
DO (NIS) 1
(Use COUNTIFS tool to count your I/O automatically)
II. TAG SPLITTER (LEFT, MID, RIGHT)
SPLIT TAGS INTO THREE PORTIONS
TAG NO. UNIT TAG TYPE SEQ NO.
13LSL-1234A 13 LSL 1234A
13TS-1235 13 TS 1235
13PSLL-1236 13 PSLL 1236
III. SPACE REMOVER (SUBSITUTE / SEARCH&REPLACE)
1. Remove Trailing Spaces and spaces in between
Before After
13PSL -1234 13PSL-1234
(Alternatively, you can use find and replace function to remove " " (spaces))
IV. SPACE ADDER (for intools use) (SEARCH)
1. Add space for intools import
Before After
13PSL-1234 13PSL -1234
V. DATA CHANGER
1. Replace Tag No.
Useful Excel Functions to use for Database & Analysis
Before Value to Replace After
13LT -1234 2 13LT -2234
13XSV -1235 2 13XSV -2235
(Alternatively, you can use search and replace function. Replace "-1" to "-2"
VI. DATA ANALYSIS
Use Conditional Formatting to highlight inconsistent values e.g. Design Temp not equal to 95 degC (custom rules)
Use Conditional Formatting to highlight duplicate values e.g. Tag no.
Tag no. Design Temp (degC) Design Press (barg)
13LT -1234 95 213
13LT -1235 96 213
13LT -1236 95 214
13LT -1237 95 213
13LT -1237 95 213
VII. DATASHEETS ROW ADDING
YOU CAN ADD ROWS OF THE SPREADSHEET/DATASHEETS (PROVIDED THE TEMPLATE IS THE SAME) IN MULTIPLE TABS)
SELECT THE TABS, PRESS SHIFT, AND SELECT THE TABS THAT YOU WANT THE ROWS TO BE ADDED.
THIS ALSO APPLIES FOR EDITING.
