WMTPOutputDataType – OPC UA for Wireless Machine Tool Peripherals

8.1 WMTPOutputDataType

The WMTPOutputDataType represents a structure that defines optional and mandatory variables that can be output when querying a WMTP. All contained entries in the structure are nodes of the WMTPMeasurementType or one of its supertypes. The structure is defined in Table 55.

Table 55 – WMTPOutputDataType Structure

Name	Type	Description	Optional
WMTPOutputDataType	structure
EngineeringUnits	0:EUInformation		False
ActualValue	0:Double		False
TypeOfMeasurement	0:UInt32		False
TypeOfSample	0:UInt32		False
InstrumentRange	0:Range		False
EURange	0:Range		False
ValuePrecision	0:Double		False
Definition	0:String		False
SignalTag	0:String		False
RelativeUncertainty	0:Double		False
AbsoluteUncertainty	0:Double		False
Timestamp	0:DateTime		False
Index	0:UInt32		False
MeasurementPeriod	0:Duration		False
InternalUpdateInterval	0:Duration		False

NOTE: Many controllers/embedded devices do not yet support structures with optional entries. To ensure that such devices can also interpret the present structure, all entries have been set as mandatory. The entries EngineeringUnits, ActualValue, TypeOfMeasurement, and TypeOfSample should always be set. However, if the remaining entries are not required, they can also be set to the default value 0.

Its representation in the AddressSpace is defined in Table 56.
