The digital state table contains the digital state sets. A state set has a name and a list of states (digital state strings). The system is limited to 16383 sets with up to 16383 states in each set.
The default set is called SYSTEM and contains all the default system states found in a PI2.x digital state table. The System digital state set number, SetNo, is 0 (zero).
Do not delete a digital state that has been in use. If you delete a digital state set, you cannot view archived events associated with the set.
The table name is PIDS. The primary key is SET.
