Parameters

clientUpdateMode

Client update mode handling:
0 (CachePoll): The client update thread periodically checks all items in active groups for changes
1 (Queue): The cache write method adds changed items to the OPC group assigned queue for each group having the item.

The default value is 0 (CachePoll). In the DANSrv.exe.config the value can be defined as:
<add key="ClientUpdateMode" value="CachePoll"/> <!-- CachePoll (0) or Queue (1) -->

writeCacheUpdateMode

Controls the cache update in the handling of client write calls:
0 (Generic): The cache is updated in the generic server after returning from the customization WiteItems method. Items with write error are not updated in the cache.
1 (Custom): The generic server does NOT update the cache. The customization module has to update the cache by executing the SetItemValue callback method for each written item.

The default value is 0 (Generic). In the DANSrv.exe.config the value can be defined as:
<add key="WriteCacheUpdateMode" value="Generic"/> <!-- Generic (0) or Custom (1) -->
