Property Value

The default value of this property is True.

When the value of this property is true, a precise match is not required between the type of the data in the incoming command, and the data type of the affected metric. In case the data types are not the same, the producer (Sparkplug edge node or device) will first attempt to convert the incoming data into the data type of the metric. For example, if the metric is of Sparkplug data type SparkplugDataType.Int32 and the command data contains SparkplugDataType.UInt8, the conversion can always be made. For the same metric, depending on the actual value, even a conversion from SparkplugDataType.UInt32 can sometimes be made. If the conversion succeeds, the converted value is written to the metric. If the conversion fails, no data is written to the metric, and the ISparkplugProducerEvents.WriteError event is raised.

When the value of this property is false, the type of the data in the incoming command must be precisely the same as the data type of the affected metric. If the data types are different, no data is written to the metric, and the ISparkplugProducerEvents.WriteError event is raised.

This method or property does not throw any exceptions, aside from execution exceptions such as System.Threading.ThreadAbortException or System.OutOfMemoryException.
