UISComponentType

A UIS command is composed of one or more command components. Usually each of the command components included in a UIS command refers to a specific data group. Sometimes they refer to an update point instead. For example, DG_F_DEV and DG_T_DEV are component types that define the action a UIS command performs. DG_F_DEV specifies to get a data group from a field device. DG_T_DEV specifies to send a data group to a field device. All data groups specified within the DG_F_DEV and DG_T_DEV elements must also exist as children of the defDataGroups element.

Attributes

The following table lists and describes attributes generally applicable to this element. However, not all of the attributes listed here are applicable to all EIEs. Additionally, some attributes are required for use in every device template file of a certain EIE, but others may be used on a case-by-case or device-by-device basis, depending on your specific needs. All attributes in templates are case sensitive; but the case sensitivity of attribute values is based on context.

Note: Occasionally, device template files for different EIEs use attributes of the same name that do different things. Efforts are made in this document to highlight cases where an attribute by one name does different things in different EIEs.
