Data Point ID

Data Point Type

Description

0

Process data (FB)

A basic and default process data feedback data point. It is used to collect most data from the HMI on the machine.

1

Machine speed (FB)

This point is used to collect the machine’s run (line) speed during standard operation. It is the actual speed of the machine, and is used across web services such as the Machine Overview/Mobile Portal/API applications.

2

This point tracks the change (delta) in total material count on the machine during its operation time. This is a requirement for OEE calculations – make sure the correct scale type is set for Delta value.

3

Production material good count delta

This point tracks the change (delta) in good material count on the machine during its operation time. This is a requirement for OEE calculations – make sure the correct scale type is set for Delta value.

4

Machine speed alt. (FB)

This point tracks an optional, alternate speed measured in a different unit listed in unit of data point.

5

Production material total count alt. delta

This point tracks an optional, alternate total material delta measured in a different unit listed in unit of data point.

6

Production material good count alt. delta

This point tracks an optional, alternate good material delta measured in a different unit listed in unit of data point.

7

Production material reject count delta

This point tracks the change (delta) in rejected or bad material count on the machine during its operation time.

8

Production material reject count alt. delta

This point tracks an optional, alternate waste material delta measured in a different unit listed in unit of data point.

10
