12. Components of the object model of the OpenSCADA system

Object model of the OpenSCADA system is based on the function object TFunction, on the parameters of the function IO and on the values' frame of the function TValFunc. Later the function's objects are included in the object tree, forming an object model of the system. Using the functions of the object model is made by linking the frame of values TValFunc with function.

The idea in general is shown in Fig. 7.

Object of the function (TFunction) provides an interface for the formation of function parameters and algorithm of the computing in the object which inherits it.

Object of the function's parameter (IO) contains the configuration of the single parameter.

Object of the values' frame (TValFunc) contains values in accordance with the structure of the linked function. While the execution of the algorithm by the associated function the values of this object are used.
