Property Description
0 – shown
1 – hidden
<UCPTlastUpdate> A timestamp indicating the last time the configuration of the
type translator rule was updated. This timestamp uses the
following format:
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ
<UCPTuri> The name of the file containing the configuration web page
for the Type Translator Rule on the SmartServer flash disk,
absolute or relative to /web/user/echelon. This property is
#8000010128000000[4].UFPTtypeTranslator_Rule_Cfg.htm
by default.
<UCPTdescription> A description of the Type Translator Rule. This can be a
maximum of 227 characters long.
<DataPointFormat> You can define the input and output data points that a Type
Translator Rule accepts with a series of <DataPointFormat>
elements. Each <DataPointFormat> element is a structure
that contains two properties: <UCPTnickName> and
<UCPTformatDescription>.
•
<UCPTnickName>. When you create a Type
Translator to use a rule, you can assign each data point
a nickname. that is used to reference the data point.
You can use this property to reference a data point in
the <InputPath> and <OutputPath> properties in a type
translator rule. By default, the nickname of the data
point is the data point’s name.
For example, a data point with a <UCPTname> of
“Net/LON/iLON App/VirtFb/nviSwitch2” has a default
<UCPTnickname> of “nviSwitch2”.
• <UCPTformatDescription>. The data point's program
ID; data type (SNVT, SCPT, UNVT, UCPT, or built-in
data type); and format (e.g., SI metric or US customary
if the type has multiple formats such as
SNVT_temp_p). The format description is displayed
in the following format:
• #<manufacturer ID>[scope selector].<type
name>[#format] .
<Case> You can create case structures to determine the values that
will be assigned to the output data points when translations
are made. This may be useful when converting to and from
scalar, structured, and enumerated data point values. The
case structures for a Type Translator Rule are defined by a
list of <Case> elements.
For more information on case structures, see the next
section, Creating a Case Structure.
