OPC UA Node Properties
browseName (string, required)
browseName (string, required)The browse name (not path) of this node
Examples: "temperature1", "pressure2"
nodeId (string)
nodeId (string)The specific node id of this node
Example: "ns=1;s=spindleSpeed"
nodeType (string, enum, required)
nodeType (string, enum, required)The node type: Whether this node is a variable or an object.
This element must be one of the following enum values:
ObjectVariableMethod
historize (boolean)
historize (boolean)Whether to accumulate an historian for this node
Default: false
interpolation (string, enum)
interpolation (string, enum)The displayed interpolation mode
This element must be one of the following enum values:
steppedsloped
Default: "sloped"
maxTimeInterval (integer)
maxTimeInterval (integer)Specifies the maximum interval between data points in the history repository regardless of their value change [in milliseconds]
Default: 10000
Example: 1000
minTimeInterval (integer)
minTimeInterval (integer)Specifies the minimum interval between data points in the history repository regardless of their value change [in milliseconds]
Default: 500
Example: 100
inputArguments (array)
inputArguments (array)Input arguments for method nodes
The object is an array with all elements of the type object.
The array object has the following properties:
name (string, required)
name (string, required)The name of the argument
description (string)
description (string)Description of the argument
dataType (string, enum, required)
dataType (string, enum, required)The data type of the argument
This element must be one of the following enum values:
BooleanByteByteStringDataValueDateTimeDiagnosticInfoDoubleExpandedNodeIdExtensionObjectFloatGuidInt16Int32Int64LocalizedTextNodeIdNullQualifiedNameSByteStatusCodeStringUInt16UInt32UInt64VariantXmlElement
valueRank (integer, enum)
valueRank (integer, enum)The rank of the transported data, default is scalar (-1), use 1 for array of scalars
This element must be one of the following enum values:
-3-2-1012
Default: -1
arrayDimensions (array)
arrayDimensions (array)For nodes that represent an array or a multi-dimensional array (e.g. a matrix), this array value specifies the size in each of the dimensions.
The object is an array with all elements of the type number.
Example: [6,4]
outputArguments (array)
outputArguments (array)Output arguments for method nodes
The object is an array with all elements of the type object.
The array object has the following properties:
name (string, required)
name (string, required)The name of the argument
description (string)
description (string)Description of the argument
dataType (string, enum, required)
dataType (string, enum, required)The data type of the argument
This element must be one of the following enum values:
BooleanByteByteStringDataValueDateTimeDiagnosticInfoDoubleExpandedNodeIdExtensionObjectFloatGuidInt16Int32Int64LocalizedTextNodeIdNullQualifiedNameSByteStatusCodeStringUInt16UInt32UInt64VariantXmlElement
valueRank (integer, enum)
valueRank (integer, enum)The rank of the transported data, default is scalar (-1), use 1 for array of scalars
This element must be one of the following enum values:
-3-2-1012
Default: -1
arrayDimensions (array)
arrayDimensions (array)For nodes that represent an array or a multi-dimensional array (e.g. a matrix), this array value specifies the size in each of the dimensions.
The object is an array with all elements of the type number.
Example: [6,4]
dataType (string)
dataType (string)The data type of this node. This can be either an OPC UA base type (see example values), or a node ID which references a data type node.
Examples: "Boolean", "Byte", "ByteString", "DataValue", "DateTime", "DiagnosticInfo", "Double", "ExpandedNodeId", "ExtensionObject", "Float", "Guid", "Int16", "Int32", "Int64", "LocalizedText", "NodeId", "Null", "QualifiedName", "SByte", "StatusCode", "String", "UInt16", "UInt32", "UInt64", "Variant", "XmlElement"
serializeDataType (string, enum)
serializeDataType (string, enum)For nodes where the data type is not an OPC UA base type but a node reference, the data type for serialization of values sometimes needs to be specified separately here. This must be a basic OPC UA data type.
This element must be one of the following enum values:
BooleanByteByteStringDataValueDateTimeDiagnosticInfoDoubleExpandedNodeIdExtensionObjectFloatGuidInt16Int32Int64LocalizedTextNodeIdNullQualifiedNameSByteStatusCodeStringUInt16UInt32UInt64VariantXmlElement
valueRank (integer, enum)
valueRank (integer, enum)The rank of the transported data, default is scalar (-1), use 1 for array of scalars
This element must be one of the following enum values:
-3-2-1012
Default: -1
arrayDimensions (array)
arrayDimensions (array)For nodes that represent an array or a multi-dimensional array (e.g. a matrix), this array value specifies the size in each of the dimensions.
The object is an array with all elements of the type number.
