Data Network Properties

These are all Data Network properties of this device.

Mode Values

These lists the values and meanings for the "Mode" property of the Active Vent.

Value	Meaning
0	"Outward" mode (Pumping gas from the connected pipe network to the outside.)
1	"Inward" mode (Pumping gas from the outside to the connected pipe network.)
2	(Unknown)

Parameter Name	Data Type	Description
Open	Boolean	Does not function.
Mode	Integer	Sets the Active Vent mode to the passed setting. (See Mode Values)
PressureExternal	Float	Does not function.
PressureInternal	Float	Does not function.
Lock	Boolean	Locks the Active Vent, when set to 1. Unlocks it, when set to 0.
Setting	Float	Does not function.
On	Boolean	Turns the Active Vent on, when set to 1. Turns it off, when set to 0.

Data Outputs

These are all parameters, that can be read with a Logic Reader or a Slot Reader. The outputs are listed in the order a Logic Reader's "VAR" setting cycles through them.

Output Name	Data Type	Description
