A JSON object describing a input register has the following syntax:

{
  "@Skill.Modbus.InputRegister": {
    "name": "Input Register 4",
    "UUID": "ce30fa69-c291-4813-9cc6-b7897a2bd16a",
    "ACL": { ... },
    "address": 4,
    "format": "uint16",
    "poll": "Modbus Controller 4.Poll Inputs"
  }
}

Object Members

name	A string value containing the name of the input register. The name is used to construct the input register’s primary key.
UUID	A string value containing the unique UUID of the input register.
ACL	An optional JSON object containing the element ACL of the input register. The format of the object is described under JSON Format for ACLs in the Xentara user manual.
address	An integer value containing the 0-based address of the input register. Must be in the range of 0 to 65535. For multi-register data formats, this must be the address of the first register of the data.
format	A string value describing the data format of the input register. The format implicitly also specifies the number of registers to read.
poll	An optional string value describing the poll in which the input register’s current value should be queried. The string value must contain the primary key of the poll. If you do not specify a poll, the register’s current value will be unavailable.
