Property Description
The name of the data point in the following format:
<network/channel/device/functional block/data point>.
The direction of the data point (Dp_In, Dp_Out, or Dp_In_Out
[unspecified]), and its xsi type, which corresponds to the bus on
which the data point resides (e.g., LON_Dp_Cfg for a
L
ON W ORKS data point) . This determines the icon used to
represent the data point in the navigation pane on the left side of
the SmartServer Web interface.
A flag indicating whether the data point is hidden or shown in
the navigation pane on the left side of the SmartServer Web
interface. This property may have the following values:
0 – shown
1 – hidden
A timestamp indicating the last time the configuration of the
data point was updated. This timestamp uses the ISO 8601
format, which is as follows:
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.sssZPhh:mm
The first segment of the time stamp (YYYY-MM-DD)
represents the date the configuration of the Data Point was last
updated. The second segment (after the T): HH:MM:SS.sss
represents the time of day the configuration of the Data Point
was last updated, in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time).
UTC is the current term for what was commonly referred to as
Greenwich Meridian Time (GMT). Zero (0) hours UTC is
midnight in Greenwich England, which lies on the zero
longitudinal meridian. Universal time is based on a 24-hour
clock; therefore, an afternoon hour such as 4 pm UTC would be
expressed as 16:00 UTC. The Z appended to the timestamp
indicates that it is in UTC. It can be left out.
For example, 2002-08-15T10:13:13Z indicates a UTC time of
10:13:13 AM on August 15, 2002.
If it is not UTC, time shift has to be defined:
2008-02-28T09:59:53.660+01:00
A user-defined description of the data point. This can be a
maximum of 201 characters long.
The data point's program ID; data type (SNVT, SCPT, UNVT,
UCPT, or built-in data type); and format (e.g., SI metric or US
customary if the type has multiple formats such as
SNVT_temp_p). The format description is displayed in the
following format:
#<manufacturer ID>[scope selector].<type name>[#format] .
This determines many factors about the data point, including the
type of values it takes and its base type. This could be any
