Hi,

If I want to create an one dimension array BaseDataVariable node, and the array with 3 items. Do I need to set the "ArrayDimensions" attribute to 3?
How about the initial value of the "Value" attribute(include the timestamp and value)?

Thanks.

For an one dimensional array with length 3 the attributes need to be set like this:
ValueRank=1
ArrayDimensions = [ 3 ]

ArrayDimensions is just the maximum length possible for this variable.
The actual value can always be shorted.
The value itself contains the length of the array data.

I'm not sure what you mean with that.
If the problem is that you don't have an initial value, you can set the StatusCode
to UA_SCBADWAITINGFORINITIALDATA, value=empty, timestamp=time when you set this information.
