Sets options for general properties that identify and characterize the generator. An asterisk beside a property name indicates required data.
Item tag
Identifies the generator. The tag is the name that appears beside the generator in
the Electrical Index or the Reference Data Explorer. In the Reference Data Explorer, you must enter a string in this box. In the Electrical Index, the item tag matches the naming convention for the generator. Select the ellipsis
button 
to open a dialog where you can modify the item tag segments that are editable.
The tag property Comply with Naming Convention determines the behavior of an item tag name. When the property is set to True, the protection masks and segment properties behave according to the settings for
the item naming convention in the Options Manager. When the property is set to False, you can edit the tag name value freely. Whether you set this property to True or False, the software ensures compliance with uniqueness if you set the Is Unique parameter to True in the Item Type Properties option of the Options Manager.
