6. Subsystem "Transports" (TTransportS)

"Transports" subsystem is represented by the TTransportS object, which contains modular objects of the transports' types TTypeTransport on the subsystem-level. Each type of transport contains objects TTransportIn of the incoming and TTransportOut of the outgoing transports. The overall structure of the subsystem is shown in Fig. 6.



The root object of the "Transports" subsystem's module provides information about the specific type of module and about the external OpenSCADA hosts/stations. As part of the single module it can be implemented the own general-module functionality. In general, for all modules, the access methods for both: inbound and outbound transports of the specific module are contained.

The object of the incoming transport TTransportIn provides an interface to the implementation of the modular method of incoming transport.

The object of the outgoing transport TTransportOut provides an interface to the implementation of the modular method of outgoing transport.
