Reference files of REF type

Data are written in the form:

Keyword = value

Names of I/O tags are in square brackets. The beginning of a file must contain parameters for the stations; the required parameters are STATION_NAME and PROTOCOL.

Keywords for stations

• STATION_NAME (string) – name of the object of Station type. Prefix and suffix, according to defined D2000 system naming, are added automatically by process D2000 CNF.
• PROTOCOL (string) – name of the communication protocol.
• DESCRIPT (string) – description of the station.
• UPDATE_POINTS (YES/NO). If the value is YES, there are also processed I/O tags following after parameters of station. If the keyword is not stated in reference file, its value is NO.

Keywords for I/O tags

• [POINT_NAME] – name of the object of I/O tag type. Prefix and suffix, according to defined D2000 system naming, are added automatically by process D2000 CNF.
• D2TYPE (string) – I/O tag type in D2000 system. Available types AI, AO, CI, CO, DO, DOut, TiA, ToA, TiR, ToR, QI
• ADDRESS1 (string) – I/O tag address. This parameter depends on communication protocol.
• ADDRESS2 (string) – I/O tag address. This parameter depends on communication protocol.
• DESCRIPT (string) – I/O tag description.
• LIMITS (string1, string2) – high (string1) and low (string2) limits of the I/O tag.
• TECH_UNIT (string) – technical units.
• DEAD_BAND (string) – Dead band of the I/O tag.
• TECH_CONV (string1, string2, string3, string4, string5) – parameters for technical conversions. The parameter string1 defines the conversion type:
• NoConv – none, string2 up to string5 are useless.
• ConvLinear – linear, string2 is the parameter A, string3 is the parameter B
• ConvPT100 – Pt100
• ConvPolynom – polynomial, string2 is the parameter A, string3 is the parameter B, string4 is the parameter C, string5 is the parameter n.

Keywords for inserting I/O tags into archive

• ARCHIV (YES/NO). If the value is YES, there is to be created an object of Historical value type of the given I/O tag. Name of the historical value is to be created from the name of the I/O tag with valid prefix and suffix defined for historical values.
• ARC_FILTERL (string) – archive filter for historical value below limit.
• ARC_FILTERN (string) – archive filter for historical value in limit.
• ARC_FILTERH (string) – archive filter for historical value above limit.
• ARC_FILTER (string) – archive filter for historical value (for all the three cases).
