Property Description
1 – hidden
<UCPTitemStatus>
This property only appears if the data logger is not
synchronized with an LNS network database or it has been
deleted. In this case, it has the following values:
IS_NOTSYNCED
IS_DELETED
<UCPTlastUpdate>
A timestamp indicating the last time the configuration of the
real-time clock 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 on the SmartServer flash disk,
absolute or relative to /web/user/echelon. This property is
#8000010128000000[4].UFPTtypeTranslator_Cfg.htm
by default.
<SCPTdelayTime>
This property specifies the time period to wait after any one
of the Type Translator’s input data points are updated before
a translation will be performed, in seconds. You might
consider setting this to a value greater than 0 if the Type
Translator has multiple input data points. That way,
translations may only occur after most or all of the input
data points have been updated. The translation will reflect
any other data point updates that occur during the delay
interval.
If this property is set to 0, the Type Translator will perform
a translation each time any of the input data points are
updated.
<UCPTTranslatorRule>
The name of the Type Translator Rule that this Type
Translator will use. This determines the network variable
type of the data points the Type Translator will accept as
input, and the network variable type that these data points
will be translated to. It also determines the value to be
assigned to the output data point(s) after the translation.
The input and output data points you select for a Type
Translator must use the network variable types specified by
the Type Translator Rule.
Chapter 12 describes the pre-defined type translator rules
included with the SmartServer software, the identifiers you
can use to reference them, and the input and output data
point types you can use with them. You can also use the
SOAP interface to create your own Type Translator Rules.
If no translator rule is specified, then the Type Translator
will convert the input data point specified for the Type
Translator to the format type of the output data point
specified for the Type Translator (e.g. scalar to scalar
translation with no offset and no constant, or enumeration to
