Decimal Precision
USINT
Specifies number of decimal places to use
when displaying the scaled engineering
value. Also used to determine actual
increment value so that incrementing a
value causes a change in scaled
engineering value to this precision.

Description
➀
The access rule is defined in bit 4 of instance attribute 4, the Descriptor. If bit 4 is 0, the access rule is Set and the Parameter Value can be read and
written. If bit 4 is 1, the access rule is Get and the Parameter Value can only be read.
➁
Data type specified in instance attributes 4 (Descriptor), 5 (Data Type), and 6 (Data Size).
Bit
Definition
Value
0
Supports settable path
0 = Link path cannot be set.
1 = Link path can be set.
1
Supports enumerated strings
0 = Enumerated strings are not supported.
1 = Enumerated strings are supported and may be read with the Get_Enum_String
service.
2
Supports scaling
0 = Scaling not supported.
1 = Scaling is supported. The scaling attributes are implemented and the value
presented is in engineering units.
3
Supports scaling links
0 = Scaling links not supported.
1 = The values for the scaling attributes may be retrieved from other parameter
object instances.
4
Read only parameter
0 = Parameter value attribute can be written (set) and read (get). Access rule is set.
1 = Parameter value attribute can only be read. Access rule is get.
5
Monitor parameter
0 = Parameter value attribute is not updated in real time by the device.
1 = Parameter value attribute is updated in real time by the device.
6
Supports extended precision
scaling
0 = Extended precision scaling is not supported.
1 = Extended precision scaling should be implemented and the value presented to
the user in engineering units.
