An EGD producer has sent a data packet to the FieldServer but the driver
cannot find a passive Map Descriptor to use to process and store the
incoming data. It’s possible that the producer has been incorrectly
configured and that the packet was not intended for the FieldServer.
Alternatively, make a new Map Descriptor which will handle this data.

Appendix B.5. EGD-ii (EGD Internal Indications)

This driver can expose data from the most recently consumed message and some additional diagnostic
information. A special Map Descriptor is required. The driver recognizes the Map Descriptor by its name which
must be "EGD-ii" which stands for EGD Internal Indications.

The following example shows how this special Map Descriptor can be configured.

This Map Descriptor instructs the driver to use the Data Array EGD_DIAG to store driver specific data. Only one of
these Map Descriptors may be specified per FieldServer.

The driver stores the following data.
