Configure String Points

Use an OPC UA String Point to map an item of data on an OPC UA server to a string point in Geo SCADA Expert database. You do this when the item of data on the OPC UA server has a string value, to enable Geo SCADA Expert to represent that data in the database.

You configure the properties of each string point using fields on the OPC UA String Point Form. The configuration Form contains many fields, organized into tabs. Most of these tabs contain properties that are common to points on many drivers (see Tabs on Point Forms in the Geo SCADA Expert Guide to Advanced Drivers).

The String Point tab includes properties that are specific to OPC UA String Points.

Use the String Point tab to:

• Configure the Common Point Properties
• Configure the Queue Parameters
• Configure the Filter Settings
• Configure Confidence Polling
• Define the Point Formatting (see Format Settings).
