The global Array-Register definitions made available to the EFM ABB Totalflow module.  They are uploaded to the Ignition instance either as individual INI files or as ZIP archives that contain INI files.  Note that INI files are text files that are read by PCCU or WinCCU to determine how to display data within an application. These global Array-Register definitions can be referenced by the configurations of the individual ABB Totalflow devices that they apply to. A single Ignition Gateway may contain multiple global Array-Register definitions files that are used to configure Array-Register Templates (i.e. templates that contain array, register, access type, data type, and register name info) for available application types (enumerations)

The global Totalflow Applications Definitions are uploaded to the Ignition instance as individual CSV files and contain the following information about Totalflow applications:

• • Enumeration number
  • Name
  • Type
  • An optional flag (SU) that indicates that this is a 'Selectable Unit' application 
  • Part number(s)

The periodic mapping files are used for building up EFM Periodic and Daily History records.  They map various record fields to database column names so that user can adjust those column names to match requirements.  Periodic mappings also allow to exclude certain record fields to be used. They are uploaded to the Ignition instance in the form of specifically formatted CSV files

Totalflow Applications

This is a list of applications (fields include respective name, slot number, enumeration, revision and type) that are currently installed on a Totalflow device. This list is obtained either by 'auto-discovery' process that takes place on  configuration/restart or by importing specifically formatted CSV file

These are a subset of the global Totalflow Applications Definition files that apply to a specific device
