Decimal Precision

USINT

Specifies number of decimal places to
use when displaying the scaled
engineering value. Also used to
determine actual increment value so
that incrementing a value causes a
change in scaled engineering value to
this precision.

The access rule is defined in bit 4 of instance attribute 4, the Descriptor. If bit 4 is 0 the access rule is Set and the Parameter

Value can be read and written. If bit 4 is 1, the access rule is Get and the Parameter Value can only be read.

Data type specified in instance attributes 4 (Descriptor), 5 (Data Type) and 6 (Data Size).

Definition

Value

0

Supports settable path

0 = Link path can not be set.
1 = Link path can be set.

1

Supports enumerated strings

0 = Enumerated strings are not supported.
1 = Enumerated strings are supported and may be read with the
Get_Enum_String service.

2

Supports scaling

0 = Scaling not supported.
1 = Scaling is supported. The scaling attributes are implemented and
the value presented is in engineering units.

3

Supports scaling links

0 = Scaling links not supported.
1 = The values for the scaling attributes may be retrieved from other
parameter object instances.

4

Read only parameter

0 = Parameter value attribute can be written (set) and read (get).
Access rule is set.
1 = Parameter value attribute can only be read. Access rule is get.

5

Monitor parameter

0 = Parameter value attribute is not updated in real time by the device.
1 = Parameter value attribute is updated in real time by the device.

6

Supports extended precision
scaling

0 = Extended precision scaling is not supported.
1 = Extended precision scaling should be implemented and the value
presented to the user in engineering units.

7

Support non-consecutive
enumerated strings

0 = Non-consecutive enumerated strings are not supported.
1 = Non-consecutive enumerated strings are supported.

8

Allow both enumeration and
individual values

0 = Both enumeration and individual values are not supported.
1 = Both enumeration and individual values are supported.

9 – 15

Not Defined

These bits have yet to be defined. They should be set to 0.
