tag name is the name of the tag about which you want to obtain
information.

executes. For more information about this control, see the section Errors
Not Reported by the BridgeVIEW Engine in this appendix.
alarms enabled indicates whether alarms are enabled for a tag. If TRUE,
tag value alarms as well as bad status alarms are enabled for this tag,
depending on the enable setting for the particular alarm types. If FALSE,
all alarms are disabled for this tag, regardless of the enable settings for the
particular alarm types.
tag value alarm enabled indicates whether alarms generated by changes
in the value of the tag are enabled. If FALSE, they are disabled. If TRUE,
they are enabled.
alarm on low indicates whether an alarm is generated depending on the
discrete tag value. If FALSE, an alarm is generated if the discrete tag value
is high. If TRUE, an alarm is generated if the discrete tag value is low.
priority is the priority of the alarm for a discrete tag. The valid range is
between 1 and 15, where 15 is the highest priority and 1 is the lowest.
