11.1 MaterialPointType Structure
The MaterialPointType structure provides the description of the capability of a material point.
The MaterialPointType structure is defined in the following table.
| Name | Type | Description | Other |
|---|---|---|---|
| MaterialPointType | Structure | Subtype of Structure defined in OPC 10000-5 | M |
ID | 0:String | Unique identifier for the material point type. | M |
Description | 0:LocalizedText | Description of the material point type. | M |
MaterialCapability | MaterialDefinitionType[] | The complete set of material definitions that the material point can process. | M |
ConnectedMaterialPoint | 0:ExpandedNodeId | The identifier for the node id of the connected material point. The connected material point may be exposed by a different OPC UA server. | M |
PropagatesProductionOrder | 0:Boolean | The material point propagates the production order with the ConnectedMaterialPoint. If the material point is a MaterialLoadingPointType, and PropagatesProductionOrder is True, then the material point receives a production order from the upstream ConnectedMaterialPoint. If the material point is a MaterialOutputPointType, and PropagatesProductionOrder is True, then the material point sends a production order to the downstream ConnectedMaterialPoint. If the material point is a MaterialRejectionPointType, and PropagatesProductionOrder is True, then the material point sends a production order to the downstream ConnectedMaterialPoint. This variable is defined by the end user and entered by the developer of the TMC server invoking the SetNewSpecification method. | M |
