GenericProcessData Class

** NOTE: ADDED in CFX 2.1 **

A flexible ProcessData variant suitable for a wide range of equipment that does not have (or does not need) a dedicated process-specific structure.

Communicates three kinds of information captured during processing of a production unit or a collection of units:

  • Setpoints — single numeric values corresponding to configured parameters of the equipment program (for example, the setpoint temperature of a heater).
  • Readings — measured numeric values captured during the processing of a unit, optionally reported with ideal values and acceptable limits.
  • Parameters — other non-numerical information that needs to be communicated, reported as name / string-value pairs.

When the equipment has multiple stages and similar information is reported for each stage, that per-stage information is reported in the StageData list, which contains one GenericStageData entry per stage.

Properties
 NameDescription
Public propertyParameters Other non-numerical named parameters that were captured during processing (communicated as name / string-value pairs).
Public propertyReadings The set of numeric readings that were measured during processing (for example, overall cycle time or whole-machine telemetry).
Public propertySetpoints The set of configured numeric setpoints that were active during processing (for example, recipe-level setpoints that do not vary by stage).
Public propertyStageData Optional list of per-stage process data, populated when the equipment has multiple stages that each report their own setpoints, readings, and parameters.
