Column Title | Function | Legal Values |

|
| characters |
Data_Array_Name | Name of Data Array where data is to be | One of the Data Array names |
| stored / retrieved in the FieldServer. | from “Data Array” section above |
| The use of this array is dependent on |
|
| the Optomux command used in the map |
|
| descriptor. |
|
| For example some commands use one |
|
| data value for all module positions to be |
|
| affected by the command (Driver will |
|
| only use one data array element). Other |
|
| commands may use one data element |
|
| per module position specified. In this |
|
| case the FieldServer may use up to 16 |
|
| data array elements. |
|
| To fully understand this, read the notes |
|
| in chapter 6. |

|
| this parameter. Up to 16 elements will |
|
| be inspected. The first element will |
|
| always be used for the first module |
|
