Data table settings
The following items are selected in the table:
Column
Meaning
Active
If this entry is marked, the selected value is entered in the datagram.
Feature
The setting or the feature check from which a value is to be transferred is selected here.
Value
The result of the feature check that is to be transferred is selected here. The "Result" option
(for the OK/NOK result of the feature check) is always available. All other results depend on
the relevant feature check or setting. Should a value consist of multiple components (e.g. a
point consists of the X and Y coordinates), these are separated with the separator set within
the general configuration.
Start
This character string prefixes the result to be transferred and can make it easier for the
receiver to interpret or make the data packet readable for human users.
NOTE
Amendment option device dependant.
Format
The format used to represent the data to be transferred is set here. The options provided
depend in principal on the values available. Customarily, the following possible options are
offered:
ASCII (2 decimal places)
ASCII (Exponent)
Decimal
Binary (Little Endian)
Binary (Big Endian)
NOTE
This means that the data packet can contain characters that are
normally used as control characters for serial interfaces or in the
protocol. This setting is only recommended if the operating
conditions are appropriately secured.
NOTE
Amendment option device dependant.
Min. length
The minimum length of the values is adjusted here.
-
Should the value be larger than the set minimum length, the length will be exceeded
accordingly
-
Modifications of the length depend on the data type, for example, a binary value is 4
bytes long
-
The modification is carried out by prefixing or suffixing with zeros or spaces
(depending on the data type)
NOTE
Amendment option device dependant.
