For both the <Data> and <Result> parameters (see next section), the SOAP application will
handle the value as a string. This string can be directly decoded and manipulated by an XML
parsing engine. All input strings passed over the network in the <Data> parameter must be
valid, encoded XML, and all strings returned by the i. LON 100 within the <Result>
parameter will be passed over the network as valid, encoded XML.
The following represents a sample <Data> parameter as it would appear when passed over
the network. The contents of the <Data> parameter here are in encoded XML format:
<Data>
&lt;iLONApplication&gt;
&lt;UCPTindexValue&gt;3&lt;/UCPTindexValue&gt;
&lt;UCPTpointName&gt;NVL_nvo03Switch&lt;/UCPTpointName&gt;
&lt;/iLONApplication&gt;
</Data>
To make this message format more readable, the above example would appear in standard
XML format in this document, as shown below. The sample below, and all of the sample
messages in this manual for the Data Server, Data Logger, Alarm Generator, Alarm Notifier,
Event Calendar, Event Scheduler, or Type Translator applications, are not written as the
messages actually appear when transmitted over the network. It is important to note this
when using the sample XML strings provided in this document.
<Data>
<iLONApplication>
<UCPTindex>3</UCPTindex>
<UCPTpointName>NVL_nvo03Switch</UCPTpointName>
</iLONApplication>
</Data>
