Note
The best practice is to disable the 'Auto-generate Templates and Poll Group' option in device configuration before deleting any templates. Otherwise the driver will attempt to regenerate default template for application enumeration if the following is true:
  1. The 'Totalflow Application' configuration panel contains at least one application of this type (i.e. enumeration) with polling enabled.
  2. There is no other custom Array-Register template defined for this application. 


If the device is configured with Auto Generate Templates and Poll Group disabled, use the Import Configuration button to import template information.

  • Array-Register Template

  • Enabled

    • Allows to enable or disable a polling thread for this polling entry.


      Note
      All default polling entries created are initially disabled and need to be enabled manually 


  • Scan Rate
    • The scan rate (in seconds) for this polling thread.
  • Tag Folder Path
    • This is a text box where a tag directory needs to be defined.


If the device is configured with Auto Generate Templates and Poll Group disabled, use the Import Configuration button to import poll group information.

Tip
When a poll group entry is enabled a polling thread is spawned, and this thread polls for data points defined in the Array-Register template this entry points to. And as with Array-Register templates, if a default poll group entry or entire poll group needs to be deleted, it is the best practice to turn the 'Auto-generate Templates and Poll Group' device configuration option off first.
