Appendix A.4.8. Show
One Map Descriptor is required for each point whose attributes you wish to ‘show’. The show function reads data that describes the attributes and the state of each
attribute for a single device. Every type of device has a different set of attributes. When the response is received by the driver, it fills a number of Data Array locations
with numeric values that represent the attributes and their states. You should reserve at least 100 array locations for each Map Descriptor by setting the length to 100.
Map_Descriptor_Name , Data_Array_Name , Data_Array_Offset , Function , Node_Name , Length , Scan_Interval , sim4100_Func , Sim4100_Card , Sim4100_Point , Sim4100_Sub

By way of example assume that point 1-2-3 is a Heat Detector and the response to the show query is as follows

The driver will load the array DA_SHOW starting at offset zero for up to 100 elements. The following table can be used to determine the values to expect for this
response.
