# Limit Types

There are three default limit types that can be used in PARCview. Additional limit types can be configured here.

**Limit Type:** Typing into the bottom * row will create a new limit type name.

**Master Tag Behavior:** The default behavior for child tags. Child tags can either always or never use master tag limits by default. This setting can be overridden on a case-by-case basis in the Master Tag Editor.

**Default Lower Color:** The default color for a lower limit.

**Default Target Color:** The default color for the target.

**Default Upper Color:** The default color for an upper limit.

**Default Alarm Color:** The default color that a tag will turn when it is in alarm.

**Visible:** Toggles visibility of the limit type in PARCview.

### Native Source Limits

Currently only supported for SQL-type sources.

**Limit Type:** Identifies the type of Limit in PARCview to map to the native source limit type.

**Data Source:** Identifies the data source containing the limits.

**Native Code:** Identifies the type of Limit in the data source to be pulled into PARCview.
