16.2.2 Index

The Index Property gives the number of the power unit.

16.2.3 IsPresent

This Property informs the client if the power unit is physically present and connected. May be FALSE e.g. when instances for possible power units are created (depending on the capabilities/connectors of the machine) which are currently not used.

16.2.4 Id

The Id Property represents the Id of the PowerUnit.

16.2.5 PowerOn

The PowerOn Property indicates if the PowerUnit is switched on.

16.2.6 ActualTemperature

The ActualTemperature Variable represents the current temperature of the PowerUnit.

16.2.7 Subtypes of PowerUnitType
