AddressTableIndex
Summary Contains the address table index value assigned to the
message tag.
Some devices communicate with one another by sending
explicit messages on a message tag. When an OpenLNS
application requests that a device should share information
with another device via a dynamic message tag, an address
table entry is created on the device sending the information.
Note that address table entries for static message tags is
pre-defined.
The address table entry associates the message tag with the
domain/subnet/node address of the device that is to receive
the information, or with a group address that identifies the
set of devices to receive the information.
This property contains the index value of the address table
entry created for the message tag.
•
For static message tags, the address table index is always
the same as the message tag’s index value, which is
stored in the message tag’s Index property and is used to
identify the message tag.
• For dynamic message tags, the address table index may
be different than the message tag’s index value. For
unbound, dynamic message tags, this property will
return the value 65,535.
Availability Local, full, lightweight, and independent clients. Note that
some objects containing this property are not available to
Independent clients.
