Please refer to the Smart Sensor Interface Technical Guide for more information regarding this descriptor.
5.3.1.3
Data Type
The 4-bit Data Type field determines the type of date of the specific sensor.
5.3.1.4
Factory Calibrate
The Factory Calibrate bit is not used for DIO types.
5.3.1.5
Sensor Writeable
If the Sensor Writeable bit is set the sensor value may be overwritten with a preset value. This capability is useful in
sensors such as up/down counters, where a preset, or possibly a zero value must be written to the sensor value.

5.3.2.1
Lock
If set, the user specified units of measure string (4-character maximum) will be used in place of the default
DIN.
5.3.2.2
Apply Scaling
If set, the user defined Offset and Gain values will be used to adjust the sensor reading:
Result = (Raw Reading * Gain) + Offset
5.3.2.3
Assigned
The Assigned bit will always read as 0. Refer to the
Smart Sensor Device Interface
documentation for further
information.
5.3.2.4
Available
The Available bit will always read as 0. Refer to the
Smart Sensor Device Interface
documentation for further
information.
