<strong>General</strong> <strong>Reference</strong> <strong>Guide</strong>Export Block Descriptors8.3.10 $dtIV [Instant Values]8.3.10.1 Instant value - general informationInstant value means values of Tags at a given time. The file of instant value contains for each Tag the following information:TagIdTagNameValueAlStatusAlTypeId of the TagName of the Tag (in text mode)Current value of the TagCurrent alarm status of the TagType of the current alarmTable 166: $dtIV - instant value file’s informations• The file containing the instant values for every Tag is available in binary or text format; you can download the instant values filedirectly from the root of the <strong>eWON</strong> root file list, or you can address it by using an Export Block Descriptor.• The instant values file normally contains all the Tags, but there is an additional feature that allows obtaining only the instant valuesfrom specific Tags.• In the Tag definition, there is a new config in the "Tag visibility section".• There is a group of 4 check boxes, each of them being associated to a group called A, B, C, D (4 groups).• Every Tag can belong to no group, one group, or more than one group.• These groups are only used when reading the instant values using an Export Block Descriptor; in that case there is an additional fieldin the Export Block Descriptor. That allows to request the instant values for the Tags belonging to one or more groups.IMPORTANT:Regardless of the group definition for each of the Tags, the inst_val.txt and inst_val.bin files (see below) always return the instantvalue for ALL Tags.These groups have nothing in common with the A, B, C topics of the IO servers. They are defined in the context of the InstantValues!• Root file accessIn the <strong>eWON</strong> root folder (FTP access or file transfer) you will find the following 2 files:inst_val.txtinst_val.bininstant values in text modeinstant values in binary mode8.3.10.2 Alarm status code valuesThe below table lists the different values that the field AlStatus can have, depending on the Alarm State and of the action the user has performedon it:Alarm StatusAlarm StatusValueAlarm status explanationsNONE 0 Tag is not in alarm statusPRETRIGGER 1Tag is in pretrigger alarm statusWarning: we assume there is no alarm ifAlStatus value
