Optimize Runtime Performance
The conversion process is complete. The utility has successfully
converted all HMI device tags to alias or direct reference tags in all
displays.
In addition to the conversion log file, the tag converter wizard generates a tag
cross-reference .csv file in the destination folder. This file cross-references HMI
tags to alias and direct reference tags.
When you open the .csv file in Excel, three columns show how the tags are
linked.
Reimport the Display XML File
Now that you have converted all alarms and displays, you are ready to reimport
the information into your application.
Follow these steps to reimport the xml display files to your application.
1. Navigate back to the open instance of the FactoryTalk View Studio
software.
2. In the Application Explorer, right-click Displays and choose Import and
Export.

IMPORTANT
Manually copy the BatchImport_Your_Project_Name.xml file to the
location of the new displays that are created by the TCW utility. Select the
xml file from this folder so all new displays are imported, not the original,
unmodified displays.
