Double-click the OptoScript block to open it.
For each tag to be scanned, create a string element following the OptoScript Syntax and tag naming standard.
IMPORTANT: Index number 0 (zero) must be the last item initialized in the OptoScript block

Code Block

title	EXAMPLE

/*
NOTES:
- All tags are readable. Use the .rw attribute to write to a tag. 
- Important! Initialize the element at Index 0 LAST. This indicates
  to the driver that all elements in stPublicListOfStrategyTags 
  have been initialized.
If the tag begins with a ' or a /, the tag is ignored.
Important! Initialize the first table element (at Index 0) last (because 
a blank string in Index 0 tells the driver that the
string table has not yet been initialized).
