The Tag Rate setting for an Engineering Unit affects storage for a tag configured for which type of storage?

The Tag Rate setting for an Engineering Unit has specific implications for how data is collected and stored. When configured correctly, this setting primarily influences how frequently data points are recorded and stored over time. However, for tags configured for real-time storage, the Tag Rate does not play a role in the actual storage mechanism.

In the context of real-time data, the system does not rely on the Tag Rate to determine how the data is stored; instead, it captures data continuously or based on user-defined events and does not aggregate that data in the same manner as historical storage does. Historical storage focuses on the long-term retrieval of data points and can be influenced by sampling rates, but the real-time data collection process operates independently of these considerations.

Thus, stating that the Tag Rate setting has no effect on storage is accurate; it does not apply to real-time storage configurations. In summary, the influence of the Tag Rate is specifically tailored to historical data storage scenarios rather than impacting real-time storage methods.
