Parameters for the DataSetDeclaration option

Parameter

Description

DataSetName

Unique name of a DataSet

Delay

Delay, in seconds, so that a Server starts monitoring points from a DataSet after starting the execution

Interval

Time interval between reports from a Server, in seconds, used by the IntervalTimeout option in the DSConditionsRequested parameter

TLE

Time limit for execution, in seconds

BufferTime

Time interval to keep in memory the events of change in objects before sending a report, in seconds

IntegrityCheck

Time interval for an integrity check when the IntegrityTimeout condition is used in the DSConditionsRequested parameter, in seconds. This parameter is only significant when the RBE parameter is equal to 1 (one)

DSConditionsRequested

A byte whose 5 (five) most significant bits represent monitoring instructions for a ICCP Server. The values of bits are 7: IntervalTimeout (periodical sending), 6: IntegrityTimeout (valid only if the RBE option is selected), 5: ObjectChange, 4: OperatorRequest, 3: OtherExternalEvent, 2: Not used, 1: Not used, and 0: Not used

BlockData

Possible values are 1: Enables compression of a message or 0: Disables compression of a message

Critical

Possible values are 1: Requests confirmation from ICCP Clients for each report or 0: Does not require confirmation from ICCP Clients

RBE

Possible values are 1: Enables a report by using the exceptions engine or 0: Disables a report by the exceptions engine

ReportAllException

Possible values are 1: Informs a Server to report all changes in the monitored points or 0: Informs a Server to report only the value of the last monitored point at the moment this report is generated
