Figure 1 – Relationship of SerializationScope and SerializationValue

The SerializationProcess taking place during read access creates the SerializationValue. The DataType of the SerializationValue is provided by the DataType Attribute. The Server may create the DataType information at the time when the SerializationValue DataType is accessed.

The Value of the SerializedData Variable may only be generated (serialized) when requested by the Read Service, by a Subscription or in PubSub publishing.
