Property Value Description
Min Write Time hours minutes seconds Specifies the minimum amount of time allowed between writes to writable proxy points, especially ones that have one or more linked inputs. This provides a way to throttle rapidly changing values so that only the last value is written.

The default value (0) disables this rule causing all value changes to attempt to write.

Max Write Time hours minutes seconds Specifies the maximum amount of time to wait before rewriting the value, in case nothing else has triggered a write, to writable proxy points. Any write action resets this timer.

The default (0) disables this rule resulting in no timed rewrites.

Write On Start true (default) or false Defines a writeable proxy point’s behavior when its status transitions from disabled to enabled.

true initiates a write when the transition occurs.

false prevents a write when the transition occurs.

Write On Up true (default) or false Defines a writeable proxy point’s behavior at station startup.

true initiates a write when the station first reaches a steady state.

false prevents a write when the station first reaches a steady state.

Write On Enabled true (default) or false Defines a writeable proxy point’s behavior when the point and its parent device transition from down to up.

true initiates a write when the transition occurs.

false prevents a write when the transition occurs.

Stale Time hours minutes seconds Defines the period of time without a successful read (indicated by a read status of {ok}) after which a point’s value is considered to be too old to be meaningful (stale).

A non-zero value causes the point to become stale (status stale) if the configured time elapses without a successful read, indicated by Read Status {ok}.

The default value (zero) disables the stale timer causing points to become stale immediately when unsubscribed.

Poll Frequency drop-down list (defaults to Normal) Selects among three rates (Fast, Normal and Slow) to determine how often to query the component for its value. The network’s Poll Service or Poll Scheduler defines these rates in hours, minutes and seconds. For example:

Fast may set polling frequency to every second.

Normal may set poll frequency to every five seconds.

Slow may set poll frequency to every 30 seconds.

This property applies to all proxy points.
