Description

It provides the information and data reported from a piece of equipment for those DataItem entities defined with a category,DataItem property of CONDITION in the MTConnectDevices Response Documentresponse document published by an MTConnect Agent in response to a probe request..

Figure Condition Example shows Condition type examples for various state: Normal (dataItemId = path_system) and Warning (dataItemId = logic_cond). It also shows an example for when the state is not available (dataItemId = cont_system).

Condition Example

Note: See condition-example for the XML representation of the same example.

The following Section Value Properties of Condition lists the additional and/or updated attributes for Condition.

Properties

NameTypeIntDepMultiplicityDescription
nativeCode string1.10..1

native code (usually an alpha-numeric value) generated by the controller of a piece of equipment providing a reference identifier for a Condition.

This is the same information an operator or maintenance personnel may see as a reference code designating a specific fault code provided by the piece of equipment.

nativeSeverity string1.10..1 severity information to a client software application if the piece of equipment designates a severity level to a fault.
qualifier QualifierEnum1.10..1

additional information regarding a condition stateindicator of the condition. associated with the measured value of a process variable.

qualifier defines whether the condition stateindicator of the condition. represented indicates a measured value that is above or below an expected value of a process variable.

statistic StatisticEnum1.20..1

statistic provides additional information describing the meaning of the Condition element.

statistic MUST match the statistic attribute of the DataItem entity defined in the MTConnectDevices Response Documentresponse document published by an MTConnect Agent in response to a probe request..
