9. Specify the data point to be monitored and controlled by the i.LON Vision 2.0 object. You can

either click Prog Name and manually enter the name of the data point, or you can click Select and
use the Data Points dialog to select the data point following these steps:

application to write to their respective data points. You must select this option or your FPM
configuration Web page will not function properly for other instances of the FPM.

b. Expand the network, channel, device, and then the functional block of the data point to be

monitored, and then click the desired data point. If the data point has a structured type, you
can expand the data point and select a field within the structure.

c. Click OK to return to the object dialog. The Name property is updated with the

programmatic name of the data point. The Format property is updated to show the format
description of the selected data point. The format description consists of the data point’s
program ID; SNVT, SCPT, UNVT, UCPT, or built-in data type; and format (e.g., SI metric or
US customary).
