UIS Command Component Parameters
The following tables list and describe the parameters specific to the UIS command component types for this remote device:
For more general information about UIS command component parameters, see UIS Command Components. The DG_F_DEV (Get data group from device) and DG_T_DEV (Send data group to device) command component types are configured in the template file. The other command component types are considered special and are defined in the EIE editor code. See Special UIS Command Component Types for more information.
CYUPDTPT
Update CygNet Point updates the record for a CygNet point. CYUPDTPT has the following command parameters:
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
FOnErr |
No |
Fail cmd on update error indicates to abort the UIS command if any update errors are encountered. The errors that might come up include: if the point specified in the Fac, Serv, Site, or UDC parameters does not exist, or if the point exists in a different UIS and any messaging errors or communication failure to that service comes up. |
|
Fac |
Yes |
Facility for pt identifies the facility of the point to update. |
|
Serv |
No |
Service for pt identifies the SERVICE of the point to update. |
|
Site |
No |
Site for pt identifies the SITE of the point to update. |
|
UDC |
Yes |
UDC for pt identifies the UDC of the point to update. |
|
UType |
No |
Update type indicates the type of update. Value options are 0 - 3, where 0=Completion, 1=Success, 2=Failure, 3=Creation. |
|
UsrMsk |
No |
User bit mask specifies the user bit mask of the point to update. |
|
UsrVal |
No |
User bit value to match specifies the user bit value to match when updating the point record. |
|
Value |
No |
Value indicates the point value to update. |
CYWAITPT
Wait for CygNet Point signals the UIS to wait to perform a command until the value of the specified CygNet point changes to a specified value.
CYWAITPT must be the first command component added to a UIS command. You cannot add other instances of CYWAITPT to a UIS command.
CYWAITPT has the following command parameters:
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
Dur |
Yes |
Duration is the amount of time (in HH:MM:SS or HH:MM or HH) for the UIS command to wait for the point value to change before timing out. |
|
FOnErr |
No |
Fail on point error indicates to abort the UIS command if any error conditions are encountered. The point errors that might come up include: if the point specified in the Fac, Serv, Site, or UDC parameters does not exist, or if the point exists in a different UIS and any messaging errors or communication failure to that service comes up. |
|
Fac |
Yes |
Facility for pt identifies the facility of the point on which to wait for the point value to change before performing the UIS command. |
|
Int |
Yes |
Interval indicates the frequency (in HH:MM:SS or HH:MM or HH) with which the UIS will check the point’s value to see if it has changed. |
|
Serv |
No |
Service for pt identifies the SERVICE of the point on which to wait for the point value to change before performing the UIS command. |
|
Site |
No |
Site for pt identifies the SITE of the point on which to wait for the point value to change before performing the UIS command. |
|
UDC |
Yes |
UDC for pt identifies the UDC of the point on which to wait for the point value to change before performing the UIS command. |
|
UsrMsk |
No |
User bit mask specifies the user bit mask on which to wait for the status bit change before issuing the UIS command. Note: The user status bit parameters (UsrMsk and UsrVal) only apply to the extended status field of the point record, so they will not match anything in the base status. |
|
UsrVal |
No |
User bit value to match specifies the user bit value to match before issuing the UIS command. |
|
Value |
No |
Value to match specifies the value on which to wait for the point to change to before issuing the UIS command. Note: You can set parameters for both the point user status AND point value. So you can match either one by itself, or you can specify that both must match your parameter values. |
DG_F_DEV
Get data group from device retrieves a data group from a field device. The Parent XML Element is uccRecvParms. The following parameters are available for each specified data group type.
| Data Group Type | Parameter | Required | Description | Value Options |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Cnt |
No |
Card Count defines the number of cards available to the selected "Dynagraph Card" (DynaCard) data group. |
Integers from 1 to 5 |
|
|
Rep |
No |
Representation defines where card data comes from and how it is displayed. |
Integers:
|
|
|
EventId |
No |
EventId |
Integers from 0 to 255 |
|
|
InclPlain |
No |
InclPlain finds last Plain or Alarm event when event ID is omitted (ordinal 6). |
Boolean |
|
|
MaxPoints |
No |
MaxPoints limits the number of DynaCard points requested in each message with the field device. This allows for control of the communication packet size by breaking up the DynaCard data into multiple messages. If not used, all available points are sent in a single response packet. |
|
|
|
Val1 |
No |
Fault Events defines whether or not Fault events are reported in the "Event Directory" data group. A Fault event indicates an exception, malfunction, or other process failure. It is the most severe event type. |
Boolean |
|
|
Val2 |
No |
Alarm Events defines whether or not Alarm events are reported in the "Event Directory" data group. An Alarm event occurs when an alarm flag is set in the controller. |
Boolean |
|
|
Val3 |
No |
Plain Events defines whether or not Plain events are reported in the "Event Directory" data group. A Plain event is any event that is not an Alarm or Fault event. Can be thought of as normal. |
Boolean |
|
|
EventCnt |
No |
Event Count |
Integers from 0 to 255 |
|
