It would be sensible for DA_AI3 to be an array of FLOATs because the temps and humidity’s return real numbers with one digit after the decimal point.

DA_AI2 could be any type of array other than BIT because the values returned for these parameters are whole numbers less than 255.

All these Map Descriptors address Node_A therefore only one Map Descriptor needs to read (rdbc) the node. The remaining Map Descriptors can be passive (thus optimizing communications.)

These parameters must be typed in exactly as specified in this manual. They are case sensitive. The format of the data extracted depends on the parameter.
