driver-TuningPolicy

This component configures the NiagaraNetwork’s timing of write requests (for example, writable proxy points) and the acceptable freshness of read requests. Also, can associate with one of 3 Poll Rates in the network’s Poll Service.

You can create multiple tuning policies under a driver’s TuningPolicyMap. You can then assign one or more proxy points to a specific TuningPolicy.

PropertyValueDescription
Default Policyadditional propertiesSpecifies additional parameters to be configured.
Stale Timehours minutes seconds (defaults to 0 seconds)
Defines the period of time without a successful read (indicated by a read status of {ok}) after which a point’s value is considered to be too old to be meaningful (stale).

A non-zero value causes the point to become stale (status stale) if the configured time elapses without a successful read, indicated by Read Status {ok}.

The default value (zero) disables the stale timer causing points to become stale immediately when unsubscribed.

Min Update Time hours minutes seconds (defaults to 01 seconds)Defines the minimum amount of time between the updates sent by the server to the client.
Max Update Timehours minutes seconds (defaults to 15 minutes)Defines the maximum amount of time used by the server to resend the values to the client for subscribed points.
