Writer.SetInitialValue (METH) ¶ METHOD FINAL SetInitialValue : ERROR SetInititalValue is a helper method in cases a static initialization in the context of a declaration can not working properly due the initialization sequences of the compiler. As soon as the FB Writer is embedded when designing own function blocks and parameters from the embedded FB’s VAR_INPUT CONSTANT area are to be provided with initial values, it is time to consider the using of SetInitialValue . For a description of the individual parameters, please refer to the VAR_INPUT CONSTANT section of Writer . InOut: Scope Name Type Return SetInitialValue ERROR Input uiDataSetWriterId UINT itfWriterDiagnostics IWriterDiagnostics

WriterGroup (FB) ¶ FUNCTION_BLOCK PUBLIC FINAL WriterGroup EXTENDS Component IMPLEMENTS IWriterGroup , IGroup, IGroupElement, IWriterGroup_Internal This Function Block is used to represent the configuration parameters for Writer Groups . See IWriterGroup for more details. If necessary create a WriterGroupDiagnostics instance and connect it to itfWriterGroupDiagnostics . It will offer the diagnostic data of an Writer Group via the itfDiagnostics output. See: WriterGroup at OPC Foundation .

DiagnosticsClassification (ENUM) ¶ TYPE DiagnosticsClassification : Attributes: qualified_only InOut: Name Comment INFORMATION This diagnostics counter indicates events, which are not considered as errors ERROR This diagnostics counter indicates errors

DiagnosticsLevel (ENUM) ¶ TYPE DiagnosticsLevel : Attributes: qualified_only InOut: Name Comment BASIC Diagnostic objects from this level cannot be disabled, and thus objects from this level are the minimum diagnostic feature set that can be expected on any device that supports PubSub diagnostics at all. ADVANCED Diagnostic objects related to exceptional behaviour are contained in the ADVANCED diagnostic level. INFO The INFO diagnostic level contains high-level diagnostic objects related to the normal operation of a PubSub system. LOGGING Diagnostic objects for the detailed logging of the operation of a PubSub system are contained in the LOGGING diagnostic level. DEBUG Diagnostic objects with debug information specific to a given implementation of PubSub are contained in the DEBUG diagnostic level. As this level is intended for implementation specific diagnostics, no such objects are specified by the standard.
