If writing SetValues are used, look at ControlMode.

32.2.1 Id

The Id Property gives the (unique) identification of the measuring device.

32.2.2 Name

Name of the measuring device.

32.2.3 Position

The Position Property indicates the physical position of the measuring device (e.g. position on a plastification barrel). With this Property it can be modelled, that several Measuring devices are placed at the same position.

32.2.4 IsPresent

The IsPresent Property provides information if the measuring device is physically installed and connected.

32.2.5 ControlMode

The ControlMode Property indicates how the measured value is currently controlled. The ControlModeEnumeration is defined in Clause 17.2.6.

32.2.6 MonitoredParameter

Measured value. The MonitoredParameterType, which also gives tolerance values, is defined in Clause 22.
