All data of a Tag object and its sub-objects can be accessed by using placeholders in the output's Data Format.
Placeholders are marked by leading {{ and trailing }} brackets and ignore spaces. So in order to access the Transponder ID of a tag, you can write {{TransponderID}}, {{Transponder ID}} or {{ Transponder ID }}.
All placeholders start at tag level. Sub-object data can be accessed by using the dot, so {{Participant.Field1}} is accessing Field1 of the assigned Participant. In case you have the participant names in Field1 of the participant list, this example will output the assigned participant name. If no participant was assigned to the tag, the placeholder will output no text.
Some data is available for active tags only, such as Battery Voltage and Temperature. For those, a placeholder will output no text for passive tags.
You can look up available placeholders below. Alternatively, you can check the available data in the Tag Details panel by clicking on a list item in the Tags tab.
