Missing Documentation for VariableIds

Post by RouseRo »

The class VariableIds in namespace UnifiedAutomation.UaBase is pretty important. It contains over 800 hundred variables yet there appears to be no documentation of any of these variables. I was able to determine what VariableIds.Server_ServerStatus_State and VariableIds.Server_ServerStatus_CurrentTime do from examining the Getting Started sample code for basic read operation. This not a question but a request the documentation be upgraded to describe all the variables in class VariableIds with enough details so that their purpose, range-of-values and possible errors be a part of the description of every variable. You've given us what looks like a nice toolkit with lots of parts but not all the parts have enough details to know how to use them.

Hello RouseRo,

The information about all these variables is standard OPC UA data, which can be found in the specifications of the OPC Foundation. I know, this is a problem for customers, who don't have access to the OPC UA specifications and therefore we are working on the documentation to provide more information at this point.

Best regards
