Parameters

context

Type: SystemObject
The list of AFCase objects from which get the attribute's value.

timeRange

Type: OSIsoft.AF.TimeAFTimeRange
The time-range to be used when getting the attribute's collection of values.

numberOfValues

Type: SystemInt32
The number of values desired. he behavior of GetValues varies based on the value of this parameter:

• If 0, then all recorded values within the timeRange will be returned with an interpolated value at the start and end time, if possible.
• If the number of values requested is less than zero, then if supported, the Data Reference will return evenly spaced interpolated values across the timeRange, with a value returned at both end points of the time range. For example, specifying -25 over a 24 hour period will produce an hourly value.
• If the number of values requested is greater than zero, the method will behave like the PlotValues method. This method is designed to return a set of values over a time period that will produce the most accurate plot while minimizing the amount of data returned. The number of intervals specifies the number of pixels that need to be represented in the time period. For each interval, the data available is examined and significant values are returned. Each interval can produce up to 5 values if they are unique, the first value in the the interval, the last value, the highest value, the lowest value and at most one exceptional point (bad value and/or annotated value). If no data is available in an interval, then no value is generated for that interval. As a result, the method may return more or fewer values than the number of values requested, depending on the distribution of recorded values over the time range. For Data References which use multiple PI Point sources, the list of values returned in each interval may be greater than 5 depending upon the data reference implementation.

desiredUOM

Type: OSIsoft.AF.UnitsOfMeasureUOM
The desired unit of measure for the returned values. If not specified or , then the values are returned in the unit of measure specified by the DefaultUOM property.

Return Value

AFSDK
