This EventType inherits all Properties of the AuditHistoryUpdateEventType. Their semantic is defined in OPC 10000-3.

The PerformInsertReplace enumeration reflects the coresponding parameter on the Service call.

The NewValues identify the Annotaion that was written. In the case of a remove it is expected to be a null value.

The OldValues identify the value that the Annotation contained before the write. It is acceptable for a Server that does not have this information to report a null value. In the case of an insert or remove it is expected to be a null value.

Both the NewValues and the OldValues will contain a value in the DataType and encoding used for writing the value.
