Creating DPTs

The keyword for the start of the type table is TypeName which must be in the first column. The following lines consist of a pair of values Name <Tab> Type. Names may be freely chosen and type constants are defined by the system (see appendix Data type integers).

Another group is indented with a tab.

Example

Type Name
Station 1
Temperatures 1
Temp_1 22
Temp_2 22
Fault 23

If you input this table as an ASCII file, the following data point type is created.
