Summary and related chapters

The main purpose for data point grouping is to facilitate data point handling.

Accordingly, the DP selector has been designed to allow filtering by groups.

With the help of groups, it is easier to manage and process related data points. You can define data point groups any way you like but you can also define groups in groups, see the references below. For example, you could group all motors in a works hall into one group or all control valves, meters.
